Hi Rama,
Sorry, but you have it all wrong.
1. Wikimedia is a repository for other Wikimedia projects. It is its
primary mission.
2. But this does not make Commons contributors second-class. On the
opposite, importing and managing files for other projects make them
first-class IMHO. ;oD

Commons is not there to serve other projects. Commons
is a project of its
own standing, and the other projects are there to serve it just as much as
it is there to serve other projects.
It is really dispiriting to see how certain people see Commonists as some
sort of second-class contributors. That is wrong in every sense of the word
-- it is an error and an injustice.

The
intention is that Commons serves other projects so why is someone
blocked
when they make sure people take notice of what is happening at Commons?
I fins it is rather offensive all these !@#$%%. It gives the impression
that
there is no conversation possible and that it has degenerated into a
power
play.
I've noted before: If Commons doesn't want to be regarded as a problem
by other projects, it really needs to start behaving less like one.
