people thinking that Erik was leaving Wikimedia, and not really moving
on to a position of even more power. So that might create some
confusion, but I understand that not everything can be announced at
once and that stuff isn't final.
Aww, c'mon, you gotta tell me. I promise I won't tell anyone.
We already have one god-king, and not everybody remembers electing
him. What position of more power could anybody be talking about?

This may be wildly off-base, and is pure speculation on my part - but could Erik be
getting involved with Knol?
The timing is certainly appropriate, it would seem to fit the step-up wording, and would
also explain why Florence throws in that otherwise inexplicable paragraph about Knol being
our enemy into what was an announcement about some board changes. (Unless Florence is in
the habit of throwing into such announcements whatever is on her mind at the time, of
course....)
