I'm confused... why have you sent a reply (twice) to an off-topic thread that died out over a week ago? Or did these get stuck in the moderation system somehow? (In which case - Mods: if you don't keep up to date with moderation, just delete emails that are no longer relevant [and let the author know], it rarely serves much purpose posting them a week late.) _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
