[Commons-l] Pikiwiki project problems

[Gerard Meijssen]

Hoi,
I would argue that any of the WMF chapters and its projects should be seen
as our "own". When this is not accepted it means that Commons is indeed an
island with the drawbridge closed. Truly reconsider because this hurts us as
an organisation. We are not divided by chapters we are organised with
chapters as our representative.
Thanks,
      GerardM
