Dear Danny,
When you understand that all the members of the jury are part of the WMF
community, what is so hard to understand that the Wikimedia Foundation, as
an organisation, does not determine where a Wikimania is held? This is imho
what you fail to appreciate in Mike's comment.
Thanks,
GerardM

Gerard, I was questioning Mr. Godwin's statement that the " decision about
locating Wikimania was *not*
made by me or by the Wikimedia Foundation." I
Like you, I understand the participants as being part of the Wikimedia
Foundation.

Dear Danny,
All people that were on the jury are associated with the Wikimedia
Foundation in one way or other. That makes it 100%. In the end everyone
who
is willing and contributes positively to the running of the WMF can be
considered part of our community..
So what is your point again?
Thanks,
GerardM

I don't quite understand. Of 14 jury members, three are on the board,
two
are on the advisory board, and Sue is ED (6
total: 42 percent) .
Others
represent chapters and community coordination.
Can you please explain
who
you mean
by Wikimedia Foundation.
