A random list subscriber?

"I am a legal intern for the Wikimedia Foundation, a member of the
Communications Committee, an OTRS representative on the legal queue

Since you obviously took my post literally, let me reassure you, that
I'm not advocating a move to <whereever you want>. I just wanted to
make sure that Dan realizes that the WMF is an international
organization and that it's not set in stone, that "We are an American
registered corporation".

And please keep in mind: this is foundation-l, probably the last place
I would choose to start campaigning for anything I really want to
achieve ;)
