Hoi,
Thank you for your sense of superiority.. the views on this list are "easy
to have"and "not the big, difficult questions".
These are some big difficult questions I can come up with:
- how will we deal with the existing bias that is Anglo-American..
- how will we deal with the existing bias that is articles in Wikipedia,
our aim is to share in the sum of all knowledge..
- how will we deal with the 6% error rates that is in Wikipedia lists
There are more issues but, hey you should not overload one email and deal
with multiple issues.. So lets focus on what *you* consider the big
difficult questions making this rebranding issue not so relevant..
Thanks,
GerardM
