There was a posting some time ago, about jobs at Wikipedia in San Francisco. I had posted a comment there, to which I don't think anyone really had a reasonable answer. But I'm still interested in what the answer might be.
The jobs posted all had high-sounding titles and responsibilities. I didn't see any jobs posted that were lower or mid-level. Does that mean that all those people are moving from Florida to San Francisco? Or B, that those jobs will be filled from newspaper ads? Or C that at Wikipedia San Francisco, everyone has a job with a big title?

The foundation is pretty small, so I imagine everyone gets a "big title".

This discussion is getting frightfully off-topic. Given previous discussions, and the high qualifications required, I highly suspect that Sue is planning to hire people qualified for higher positions (i.e. those who deserve the "big title") right now, and, once they know their positions, hire the lower and mid-level employees (whom report to high-level employees) later.
