I didn't say you shouldn't have used co-option. I didn't even say you should create a new process. You should just follow normal, prudent processes for making a decision. You wouldn't make major procurement decisions without getting multiple quotes. In the same way, you shouldn't make major recruitment decisions without interviewing multiple candidates. _______________________________________________ Wikimedia UK mailing list [email protected] http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org
