Can we learn from our mistakes now? Doubtful, WMUK aint gonna get a single penny from my contributions,
Not asking at this time. May be asking in six months but by then it should have got the basics in place or should have been folded.
its gonna run into the same difficulties re directors or is gonna become some London wiki-hack based organisation.
I doubt it. There is a reason why we are planning for much wider advertising this time. Population distributions being what they are London is obviously going to have an impact but that is not directly a cause for concern.
Perhaps, it should call itself the Wikipedia London chapter? cobble a draft constitution and and get a credit union as its banker.
Not sure a credit union would be ideal.
At the moment I think we all need to discuss what has gone wrong before we start with the whole process for the last two years. Its just become a joke.

That at least can't happen. We are building in a 6 months kill switch. If we have not got the basics done within 6 months of the board election then the company doesn't get the trademarks and the like and we start again. Currently putting together a list of milestones so we should know if there is a problem will before that.
