Hi everyone,
Thanks for all the feedback (online and offline) in assisting us to settle on the two candidates to support for board positions on WMF's Board. As mentioned off-list, a board (wmke) resolution on the same has been made and we'll give an official position of wmke's decision on the chapters internal mailing list and wiki.
cheers, Alex

Alex,
We have WMF Board Members, WMF Staff & Nominees on this list. So we
have 2
options:
- I can temporarily remove these people from our mailing list, and
add
them back later on.
- Have this discussion off-list, with discussions being sent over
batch
emails to interested chapter members.
I'd personally go for Option 2, since even if I remove members from
this
list, the discussion archives are still publicly available and
therefore
easily accessible.
What do others think?
Abbas.

Hi BT,
Yah, the editathone never happened. We had a good quorum of around
10 guys
but unfortunately, unforeseen events at Mugo's place (the venue)
left us
without a venue. We tried looking for alternatives but didn't get a workable one so we had to abort it.
It was decided that we move the editathone to 30th but later on suggestions of just having someone work on the list came up
considering
the number of times we've had to postpone this. I'll have a new thread
for a
followup.
So back to WMF chapter selected seats. It's common that chapters
discuss
this off list or on internal lists, do you think we can do it on
this list
because I don't foresee a meetup before the 5th of July.
cheers, alex

We already have recommendations as a board on this thatt we'd like to passby chapter members before passing a resolution. We hoped to have
a
light discussion yestrerday during the editathon which never
happened. We
have till 5th of May for consensus by chapters for these seats after
which
chapters will have to vote incase a consensus isn't arrived at.
Feedback from the board is coming up soon...
cheers, Alex****
