The sad thing about this is while the discussion on-wiki displays an appalling lack-of-good-faith and some disturbingly poor behavior from some admins who really ought to know better, unfortunately this list is really not the right venue for this sort of thing; even though I'd venture to say that the audience on this list are significantly more likely to be knowledgeable about the issues surrounding the geonotice and the job posting than those people on wiki. Frustrating. -Dan _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
