We certainly have some significant gaps. For something started by internet geeks, our coverage of computer science is really quite weak (ok for "end users", but very spotty elsewhere). Our coverage of other engineering fields is often atrocious. There's a lot more content to get to. The community behavior problems in the way of getting to content annoy me a lot of days. -- -george william herbert george.herb...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
