I put discussing the WCA on this weekend's board meeting agenda a while back. However, the context has obviously changed a lot now. I've just added an agenda item about the current situation, which will hopefully be accepted by the rest of the board. Fæ's already agreed to provide an update at the meeting.

Thanks,
Mike

That's an interesting way of putting it! However, now that the WMF has come out against, is there any way that the WCA can fulfill its stated aims? Furthermore, if WMUK continues to support the WCA, will this damage the chapter's relationship with the Foundation?

To be honest, it never really offered any support in the first
place... they said they liked the idea, but that's as far as it got.
They haven't withdrawn their support, they've said they aren't going
to be giving any support - subtly different!
