Well, I guess that clinches it. Who will inform Rehmat Aziz about his request to join LangCom being denied? Or do we simply "answer" by not replying? Do we have a policy concerning communication with individuals?
Fwiw, Oliver

Re new members: How am I supposed to gauge whether a newly proposed LangCom member is proactive enough to pass muster?
In more general terms: Do we need a discussion on this list about our functionality? I've just seen that there was a discussion about LangCom on Meta about a month ago (https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikimedia_Forum&diff=prev&a...). Fine, so I'm considered active - but I'm only really active on this mailing list (and on sw:wp and by extension on wikidata but that's a different matter). If someone contacts me on a talk page, chances are that I won't respond. And I also don't feel comfortable engaging in discussions outside of this mailing list.
SO: Is it sufficient for me to react to posts on this mailing list which concern my agreement or disagreement with regard to a new language project? Or do you, my fellow LangCom members, prefer for me to resign if I don't feel able to be more proactive than that?
Fwiw, Oliver
