Chers amis de Wikimedia France,

thank you so much for writing this. A very thoughtful document that will surely help the Board of Trustees (at least it will definitely help me) in our decision making on this serious and tough issue. I am very glad to see that the discussion around this continues to stay on such a high level - following with the papers published by several chapters and groups right before our last board meeting and - probably most importantly - the extremely successful Finance Meeting a few weeks ago in Paris that you guys did put together. Chapeau !

Please keep feedback and comments for meta rather than lists.

I will go to meta right now, reposting what I said here. Promis !

Merci beaucoup, Arne
