Yaroslav,
To be fair to Ellie (and speaking as an outsider), she is extremely busy and usually answers direct emails quite quickly, but doesn't usually get involved in big community discussion threads on mailing lists because she spends a lot of her time travelling (and thus, I suspect,using a mobile device).

This has been going on for three days, yet not one person involved in this decision has take a moment to reachout personally to the people who worked on bids, They have tabled justifications on list discussions, they have changed the status of Meta pages but not once have they given anyone the courtesy of owning the mistakes that have caused this, not even the WMF has made any personal attempt to help reconcile the damage at a more personal level..
To be honest, I can not recollect a single instance WMF people ever apologized to the community for any decision, even when it was immediately clear that they screwed up badly (like removing admin rights on WMF Wiki etc). I do not expect it this time. I do not see Elly Young in any of the Wikimania threads.
Cheers Yaroslav
