Four? There are 236 people on that mailing list.
It has near-zero
traffic as we're still small enough for *all* discussion to be kept on
the wiki.
On which wiki? If you mean meta, then it was there too
(<http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikinews/License>). If you mean the
English Wikinews, then I disagree. This was an issue affecting the
Spanish, Serbian, and Romanian editions of Wikinews. Where other than
meta or the mailing list were you expecting a discussion about those?
I have no idea who made that page - and certainly word
of its
existence was never circulated.
It was circulated on the mailing list. 11 different people replied to
it. 236 Wikinewsies could have read it and circulated it to their own
communities.
I had a look at that the other day. The vast majority
of the "votes"
there are from 2004. What's more noticeable though is that hardly any
of the users on that page actually are Wikinews contributors. To sum,
nothing on that page is relevant to the situation today.
Which is the reason a completely new page was made at
