Ok, gathered from what several of you said, is it fair that I draw the following conclusions:
- Seanw is a group contact of Wikimedia, appointed by Wikimedia, on
FreeNode.
define "appointed by Wikimedia", please. If you are referring to the foundation, this is wrong.
It is? My understanding of the system was that while the WMF never really claimed to own the IRC channels, because they're at # and not ##, the foundation actually does, and so it appointed the group contacts. [[m:IRC Group Contacts]] says "The IRC Group Contacts are the liaisons between Wikimedia and the staff of the freenode IRC networkhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/en:freenode
As Communications Committee member I daresay it is totally different from my understanding. It make me doubt how the recent discussion is based on the accurate fact and hence those complaints are based on facts and truths at least the Foundation recognizes as such.
Also I support the idea this discussion as entire except the inquiry how the Foundation is relevant to the management of the channel in question is off topic here to foundation-l mailing list. ."
