Anders, we've been asked for help at least twice that I know, as I can witness for those two times. The first time I thought it will be solved, but it hasn't been solved after two years. Plus, a couple of previous years of getting informal complaints in relation to the WMF's behavior in India.
Perhaps you could be tempted into plainly saying what "it" was in these reports, so that you do not remain the only one in this thread able to judge the facts.
The *problem* is that WMF is actually participating in keeping the
mess in perpetual state. And it's not about bad intentions, but about incompetence. So, let's start solving *our* problem with India, not *Indian* problem with us.
A good step toward solving "our"/"the" problem is to name it. In the meantime, the one problem you named -- lack of representation of the "lower classes" from India in Wikimania -- seems to me to be far from our most pressing, or most tractable, problem. (Are "the lower classes" from Serbia represented in Wikimania?)
