Hey Itzik,

I've consulted with WMKE's Board and I will assume an interim position of the Chapter's representative to WCA until we elect a new representative. I will sync up with Abbas and get back to you as soon as possible.

Abbas, thanks for the forward

regards,
Alex

Hi Itzik,

I am really sorry for the frustration -- too bad the process has been dragging more than expected.

Unfortunately, I am no longer with Wikimedia Kenya. I have cc-ed the WMKE mailing list and hopefully, someone from the Chapter can give you an official response.

Thanks,
Abbas.

Subject: Calling for WCA meeting
To: abbasjnr@hotmail.com

Hi Abbas,

As you can see on the chapters mailing list, since our last meeting during Wikimania, there wasn't even one email on the list about what going on next with the WCA.

According to each committee schedule, before 23 days, on July 31, the members should have see the outcomes, and vote on that on a week from now - on Aug 31. 

It didn't happen. none of it.

Until now the committee, the SG and the DSG didn't even update about our next steps, for over a month.

We talking too much about this associations, for too long. Many of the chapters will need to select if to include supporting of the WCA in their budget that they going to send in the next few days to the FDC for approval and nothing had been talk about that yet. How can we have a WCA running next year if none of the chapters will allocated money to support him? how they will allocated money without budget or wide aggrement about the amount of the money?

According to the charter, by the request of fifth of the members (mean 6 members), we can call to online meeting of the council. I'm asking if your chapter will supprt having such online meeting ASAP to get status and decide what next.


Thanks,
Itzik, WMIL
