Chris, I think you are misreading something that I wrote.

The Jimmy sent an email to the mailing list:
It was written at a time when there were efforts underway by Patricio to get James to agree to a joint statement. It is an encouragement to James to be honest with the community about what happened. It is not a full explanation of what happened - he already knew that.
And yet, when he was advised by James that in fact that effort was spearheaded by James and not Patricio, he turns around and states that he didn’t know as he wasn’t involved.
Both of those things are true. I knew they were talking, I didn't know who who initiated it.
Jimmy has just now written that it was the Wikimedia Foundation that “encouraged [him] to be honest with the community”.
No, I said that I wrote him a personal letter to that effect.
