[Foundation-l] Design goals for the election and board selection process

[Jesse Martin (Pathoschild)]

Hello,

Eliminating username conflicts with unified login might make it
possible for a third-party script to count edits on every wiki, but
unified login will apparently not combine contribution logs. "Single
user login" does not mean "single crosswiki account per user"; this
common misconception might be the reason it is documented as "unified
login".

For more information on what unified login will actually be, see <
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Unified_login >.

Yours cordially,
Jesse Martin (Pathoschild)
