[Foundation-l] Contact in Thailand

[Walter van Kalken]

You are starting to speak like a repetative record. A bit more respect 
in your tone could well get us somewhere. A person interested in 
wikipedia. I have spend more fucking hours in the past 2,5 years for 
wikimedia FOR FREE then you will ever do on your salary! Without people 
like me contributing to these projects there wouldn't be any money to 
pay for your cushy job earning topdollars over my back. So a bit more 
respect and a more normal tone should be warranted. Also you are not on 
the board as far as I know.
