It seems to me that whether Moreschi knew or not is probably
irrelevant to the issues here, which in my view are mainly issues of
governance and judgement. Out of curiosity, what would any of his
possible answers to that question mean to you?

Actually, there's not necessarily any informant at all, though the Register have got
their facts completely correct (as far as I can make out, this pretty much all tallies
with my own data). Virtually all the data for confirmation of the facts is available
online for free, though actually finding this data would either require a tip-off or a
very impressive dirt-digging operation.
Really, I don't think anyone's accusing Doran of stealing money from WMF (yet),
much as she seems to have stolen from others. Two issues here - the dazzling incompetence
displayed by the WMF people/Board in not doing a criminal records check (over here, in the
UK, you can't even breathe without getting Criminal Records Bureau clearance, I'm
sure fellow UK-based WikiMedians can back me up here) - and if, and to what extent, people
at WMF have lied to us and to the media.
Fuckups can be forgiven and forgotten. Nobody ever trusts someone caught out in lying
again, though.

Christiano;
You implied yesterday on Jimmy's en.wp talk page that you'd known
about the criminal cases before Cade's article...
Was that imprecise wording, or did you actually have knowledge before
the article ran about the arrests and history here? If you did know,
did you discuss it with anyone else and give anyone a heads-up on it?
Thanks...
