The bigger problem are the allegations mentioned in the article about use of foundation funds. Three specific claims are made: -Jimbo tried to expense a $300+ bottle of wine -Jimbo tried to expense a massage parlor visit -Wikimedia foundation took away Jimbo's credit card. Obviously, of it any of that were true, it would be super bad, and nothing can be done but watch it play out. But, far more likely, if it's false, the foundation needs to find out that it's false, and then get that word out ASAP. I haven't seen them say it's not true. I haven't looked hard, but then-- nobody else out there is looking hard either. If I haven't seen "the facts" on the issue, neither has almost everyone else.
Sue Gardner did answer on Danny Wool's blog, fwiw.
It's worth nothing. Sue Gardner wasn't there when these things happened.
