Thank you for your information, Jeffrey. Will making those email
communications within the small group after August 7 transparent to other
wikipedian if they are interested in being a part of the Steering Committee?

I am one of the people who has done a substantial

Wikimedia Canada for the last couple years, but I am not one of the people

list because based on the discussions that have read, I have confidence that
the people who signed the incorporation documents will run a fair election
for board members and hope that the people we elect as board members will be
transparent.
The people on this list should know that there were emails sent to a small
group after August 7 discussing the incorporation papers, but those emails
were discussing the logistics of registration and did not make any changes
to the bylaws and policy that are not on the website.
The one topic that was discussed in those emails that the larger group may
want to discuss is what name we will use if the government rejects the name
"Wiki Canada" for sounding like a government department. If you have any
comments about that, feel free to start a thread about it in this email
list.
As far as I know, there have been no other backroom discussions.

behalf of members, such as creating the rules and regulations by which
the members would be governed. Writing off the community's involvement
*now* is no better than writing it off *before* you submitted without
review.
Having previously created the minimal set of rules required and offering
to pay for all necessary legal and incorporation fees, I'm both well
aware of how disingenuous your comments are and utterly unwilling to be
condescended to. Get off that high horse, it's dead.
