I'd like to acknowledge the fact that local
associations are apparently
unable to create a separate mailing list for discussing the nomination
of chapter representatives. It did not appear to me to be a huge
unaccessible task, but unfortunately, that's a fact. Not the right
infrastructure I guess.
I even envisionned to create a Google list, that the idea really turned
me off :-)
For what it's worth: a simple e-mail to info(a)wikimedia.de or me
personally would have sufficed. We use a very good hosting company
that allows us to create mailing lists without much effort. Setting up
a wiki would have been easy too. I'm glad though that now we seem to
have found someone who will take care of setting this stuff up.
For the record, same here ;-) Manuel, our webmaster, already
provides hosting for the Austrian and the Israeli chapter and a polite
request to manuel.schneider at wikimedia.ch is unlikely to meet
disapproval...
Anyway,
http://lists.wikimedia.ch/listinfo/chapters (chapters at
wikimedia dot ch) is up and running now and a wiki is being installed
at chapters.wikimedia.ch though will only be functional by tomorrow.
I'll send out a mail to all chapters secretaries (assuming that I can
figure their mail addresses out) tomorrow, to implement Florence's
proposals (one bureaucrat/listadmin per chapter, to add all the other
board members)
