On the general point, it is my opinion that the Charity is a subset of the UK community; much as with a square and a rectangle, all that is Charity-related is ipso facto UK community-related; but not all that is UK community-related is necessarily Charity-related.
There's probably a technical term that logicians use to describe this, and no doubt someone will now embarrass me by posting a link to the relevant Wikipedia article...
On the specific point, and now with my Teller's hat on, items directly related to the business of the AGM including ballot papers go only to members, which is why Richard sends them as he has access to the membership database. Obviously we are checking that votes are cast only by members.

For what its worth, I would prefer that WMUK matters are included to this list rather than have a separate mailing list. In my view the amount of UK specific Wikimedia Email has not yet got to the point where we need to subdivide the list. I'm sure the tellers will only allow members of the charity to vote at the AGM, and it is at that point that we really need to differentiate between UK Wikimedians who are or are not members of WMUK.
