[Foundation-l] #wikipedia IRC channel guidelines review

[Casey Brown]

First, what a horrid thing to say.  Second, by Wikipedia-affiliated he meant
the #wikipedia-* channels on IRC.  That is where Mark's jurisdiction is, and
that is what the guidelines are for.  I do not see what the problem with his
statement was.

Mark,
There are Wikimedia affiliated IRC channels on Freenode.
Thanks for getting even the basics wrong.
Thanks,
