Hi,

Admin stuff: We are very aware of the sensitivity of the data. We've got a group working on improving privacy protection in data sharing (http://privacytools.seas.harvard.edu/), which is a tacit acknowledgement that data sharing as it exists often doesn't protect privacy. With that said, we've designed our workflow so that all the analysis happens on Wikimedia's servers, and everyone that needs access to that analysis right now has access to stat1002, so for the foreseeable future everything is staying at Wikimedia. I think it's a bit premature to talk about formats for publishing because we don't know what our findings are going to look like and many of these sensitivities depend on the social, political, numerical, etc. contexts. Once we reach that stage we'll absolutely make sure everyone is comfortable with what we'd be publishing.

Tech stuff: This is incredibly helpful - thank you both very much. This is exactly what I was looking for, and way easier than starting from scratch.

- Justin
