communities, but I think an established regional
subject would help
uproot
the Foundation from a single country it relies too much on.

Hi Ricordisamoa,
There are multiple chapters, user groups and thematic organizations that
are active in the US and have a degree of separation from WMF. The US
affiliates are cooperative with each other, and the affiliate leaders
communicate with each other fairly frequently. May I ask what benefits
you
think would come from having a consolidated US chapter? We've talked
about
this casually among ourselves but so far we seem to be satisfied with a
confederation of smaller affiliates instead of a single national
affiliate.
Thanks!
Pine

The WMF will become a truly global organization when a Wikimedia

Hi Garfield,
I'm asking this on Wikimedia-l because a number of Wikimedians
have noted
the expensiveness of the San Francisco area including its high
cost of
living for staff, employer competition for engineering talent,
and
associated high salaries for WMF employees.
I see on
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/foundation/8/8a/RFP_for_Real_Estate_S…
that WMF is considering relocating its offices when its
current main office
lease expires.
Questions:
What happens to the remodel expenses that WMF is paying for at
its current
location? If WMF vacates the premesis, will it be compensated
for the
remodel by the building owner?
I hope that WMF is contemplating fully exiting the San
Francisco market
area in order to economize, get better value for our donors'
funds, have
less competition for talent, and lower costs of living for
staff. Is this
being considered?
Thanks very much,
Pine
