Russavia, Do you remember like me reading why these people came to this conference? In that light, do your remarks provide us with any connection to these objectives? .Do you know the topics of the presentations given? Do you know the topics of the conversations that happened inside and outside the scheduled meetings? Can you imagine that the result may be increased cooperation and less waste because of shared information on best practices? Thanks, GerardM
Well my comments were pretty much common sense comments based upon my silly assumption that the conference was related to the core mission of our projects.
I sincerely hope that the irony isn't lost on people that here we have a conference, which was supposedly all about best practices, yet when someone has asked for information on how much was spent by one chapter (who sent an extraordinary EIGHT people), instead of following best practice of transparency (i.e. answering the question), the person was met with deflection. Of course, it is entirely possible "that" memo hadn't filtered down to Richard Symonds, but I think the most likely comment one could make here is.....
WELCOME TO WIKIMEDIA.
