Ok, gathered from what several of you said, is it
fair that I draw the
following conclusions:
1) 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
network<http://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.
