Hope that explains it.
That was unnecessary, but OK.

If you have a high-priority and/or important

you just write an email to the Foundation? There is board at wikimedia
dot org and bpatrick at wikimedia dot org (Brad Patrick, general
counsel & Interim Executive Director WMF) for your convenience.
I do this all the time with Brad and those emails dont make it to this list.
And you still find that not enough? Contact with the Wikimedia officials
is exactly and exclusively what you need. And if you're mails are so
business-like, then what's the purpose of sending them to foundation-l,
which is open for everyone to state their opinions? I don't think making
a "business" mailing list would be helpful. Sending mails to relevant
people instead is.
