Hello, everyone.

It is unfortunate the air is still not clear among this group.  "Sunshine is the best disinfectant", said judge Brandeis.  I urge everyone to engage in a frank discussion of what transpired, AND to stop dropping dark hints.  Those do not help at all.

From WMF's perspective, I should note that we have received US$596 by wire back from Stephen, but that the start-up grant[1] is still not resolved, and a full accounting will need to be made of all the grant funds (US$7001), spent and unspent.  Such a report has still not been submitted.  I would urge those of you still interested in pursuing a new beginning to make an effort (I know it's unappetizing) and resolve this ASAP, so we can all turn the page.

I am still convinced much can be done in Kenya, albeit with a different approach.
