I fully support allowing our talented and dedicated
WMF staff to have the
opportunity to choose the people who guide the direction of the WMF.
I'd like to add to this that the (pretty small) set of staffers that
would not otherwise have had eligibility to vote are generally in
administrative, finance and legal positions - all of which bring other
perspectives to evaluation of the candidates that may be valuable.
But, more importantly, they share our values and commitment to the
ideals behind the movement. They wouldn't be working at the Foundation
if they didn't because our internal culture is - literally - all about
the mission.
Disclaimer: I'm staff myself, but eligible to vote as a volunteer.
