Earthfire and rustbuckets, can we please stop calling for people to be fired for doing their job, especially right after admitting that there is obviously more going on that we don't know about yet. No one's going to "start replacing employees" based on mailing list messages, so this kind of peremptory statement only serves as dog-whistling posturing, and only contributes to the denominator part of this list's signal-to-noise ratio. This is literally divisive.
Be better than that.

There are ways that Wikimedia rebranding consultations could be done collaboratively, politely, and with careful stewardship of donor's money. This is not one of them.
I think that it's time for some people in WMF to move on. Without having access to WMF internal discussions, I don't know exactly who I would remove, but I've had enough of poor coordination, questionable financial decisions, and discourtesy, and I hope that the donors and the Board have too. These problems are not isolated to the rebranding effort, but I think that this is as good a place as any to start replacing employees who aren't working out.
