Yes I wonder is Milos is losing something in
translation here.  I don't believe he means what
native English speakers are reading here. Since he
says "content issues which is now a matter of Office,
Board and Jimmy -- and which deal only with content on
English Wikipedia", and they do not actually deal with
content issues as I understand the term
