Gerard,
I contribute to Tamil Wikimedia movement since 2005. I have made 25000+ edits in total. I serve as bureaucrat and sysop in most of the Tamil Wikimedia projects.
I am an ordinary member of WMIN. I have not been in any role with the India chapter. I have hardly written one or two mails there.
I have not applied for any jobs with CIS-A2K.
You are open to interpret my affiliation and bias with this background info :)
