I echo the request Affcom publish this decision and others in a more
transparent and expedient manner. Ideally that would include a brief
justification for the decisions as well, the movement should be informed
about the dealings of the Affiliations Committee.

I second, and strongly support Pine's suggestion.
Being the Affiliations Committee a community-run Wikimedia committee
emanating from the Wikimedia Movement itself, transparency is to be
expected whenever it is possible. As far as I know, there is nothing
confidential in that resolution.
Obscurity is the mother of all rumors, and we're dearly suffering from
that.
All the best,
Paulo

Hello Gonçalo,
Thank you for this report.
I would like to ask the Affiliations Committee to post the July 2018
resolution regarding Wikimedia Portugal to this mailing list and to
publish
that resolution on Meta.
I am an advocate for transparency about financial and governance matters,
which includes the activities of the Affiliations Committee. I request
that
going forward, all similar resolutions from the
Affiliations Committee
should be sent to Wikimedia-l and published on Meta within one week of
their approval by AffCom.
Thank you,
Pine

Dear all,
As part of the roadmap AffCom agreed with us after they decided to
suspend
some of our benefits within the Wikimedia
Foundation programs

Wikimedia Portugal held an Extraordinary
General Assembly on the 1st of
September, and a board was elected. This board is identical, with one
exception, to the board elected in April of this year and that I

We are currently working on the final step of the roadmap, which is a
plan
for active contributor involvement and improved
chapter capacity. The
first
part is to gather signatures of at least 20
chapter members who are
active
contributors to Wikimedia projects, which is
currently underway at

it.
