I have some one question for you.
I am having a very hard time wrapping my head around how the grant information you posted lead to WMF BoT voting James Heilman of the
board in
a vote of no-confidence.
Ruslan - what makes you think the two issues are connected?
I have heard nothing from the WMF that suggests that they are.
A few other people are trying to draw some link between the two, but the burden of proof is on them not on Lila....
Maybe you missed this:
< https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Wikimedia_Foundation_Board_noticeboard/...
In which James Heilman, by way of explaining why he was removed from the board, complains of a lack of transparency, links to the announcement of the Knight Foundation grant, and comments "many details however are still missing."
