Kindly point to where on EN that any design discussion was

for that matter, point to the forum where the design of the banner

publically discussed at all?
Who said the discussion was advertised on en? I didn't even say that
any
of us could have participated in the discussion, but they could have
provided
comments or opinions to those who /did/ organize it.
EN is still more than 50% of all Wikipedia traffic (according to
Alexa)
and
I bet most regular contributors were unaware a fundraiser was coming
let
alone that there was a design discussion (assumming there was a discussion).
Valid point, but what does that have to do with this? (There was not a public discussion, at least not that I was aware of.) All comments
can
go
to: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Fundraising_2007 but please
try
not to repeat the same concerns as other people (i.e. don't all of you
post
that the notice is ugly). For those interested in the Wikimedia Foundation
and
its fundraisers (not just the English Wikipedia), the fundraiser was a public date that was announced a while ago. If you wish to be kept up
to
date on Foundation matters, sign up for Foundation-l http://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l.
Well, now there is a public discussion on EN with more than a few
people
advocating blocking this message out entirely and creating a more reasonable one for EN.
