There's no need to be mean.  I would think that Christine just assumed
that he was talking about our product was "MediaWiki", not the content
projects.  MediaWiki is a piece of software, so it's more likely to be
thought of as a "product" than the projects are.

That being said, I do agree with the fact that we should err on the
side of responding *on-list* unless there's a very good reason not to.
 If someone asks a question on the list, it's best to respond on the
list so that everyone can see the answer -- sharing wisdom and making
sure everyone learns things is good. :-)

Christine probably didn't think the whole list would be interested in
it and decided to respond off-list, which is fine... but based on the
responses that she received, I'm sure she'll be scared to do that
again. =P
