I disagree, the question raised is relevant to the Wikimedia movement as a whole.

Please do not drag this list into whatever trouble you've found yourself in on another. Wikimedia-l is neither a court of appeals for Wikimedia-related lists nor a bullhorn for your personal grievances.

Hi Darcy,
I am concerned at what appears to be deliberate suppression of questions raising governance related issues from the wikimedia UK email list. The email below is an example. The list was always intended to be independent of the UK chapter, though one of the moderators is one of your employees.
Could you please confirm that neither you, nor your employees, are manipulating this public list to your political advantage.
Thanks, Fae

It would be nice to hear from the board how this was discussed before offering the interim position. After all, in the several interviews I took part in for WMUK staff, pretty much the first basic question was along the lines of 'have you ever edited Wikipedia?' as a way of assessing what the candidate knows about Wikimedia; so I can not believe this would come as a surprise considering how sensitive the board is on COI and its perception by our community.
