[Foundation-l] Provisional Volunteer Council - proposal sent to the Board

[Gerard Meijssen]

Hoi,
Our dear friend Danny Wool pontificated that I would oppose this proposal (
http://allswool.blogspot.com/2008/03/it-seems-that-effeietsanders-has.html).
It is for this reason only that I do not want to disappoint him and
give
a reaction.

What is on the table is that a group of self appointed bosses are going to
investigate if and how a wiki coucil can be started. This group is likely to
come to the conclusion that it would be a good thing. As long as there is
nothing to see, there is not much for me to comment on. The fact that they
take the initiative is the best reason why they may succeed.

I have not been invited in this group of self appointed bosses, this is a
good thing as I am busy enough as it is. I have written in the past
extensively on the subject, I spoke with some of the bosses so my view is
known. With Milos and Pathoschild part of this effort, I am sure that the
relevance of linguistic and cultural diversity will get some attention (one
of my hot buttons)
