I see that Jimbo has replied on his talk page now saying that he was
unaware of the allegations also. Although I doubt that the official
channels for this sort of thing include making him personally aware as a
matter of routine.

While I would not necessarily be aware of anything reported through official

can recall nothing being mentioned at any of the most recent few London
Wikimeets where I have usually been one of the first to arrive and almost
always one of the last three to leave.
I am equally unaware of any desire to restrict discussion in the way you
describe. The only desire of which I am aware is to keep the Water Cooler on
the WMUK wiki free of navel-gazing and dirty laundry (such should now take
place at the Engine Room instead).
Certainly if these allegations have been made in good faith then it is
something that people should be aware of. In all circumstances though it is a
Good Idea for people to be sensible about their belongings in any public
place.

The allegation on Jimmy Wales' soapbox is the first I had heard of any
problems on any channel. Was anything reported officially or is this
subtle trolling?
I know that the current group-think is that discussion should be
limited to Good News stories and positive PR, but if there have been
thefts then a warning to attendees to take care would have been nice.
