This is very very meta. But in my own defence, I haven't posted anything for over a year. Mourning my dearly departed mother. I have said before that monthly limits are prejudicial against those that rarely post, but do post when the expletive hits the fan; and do so with the full force of conviction they are expressing the views of the community. Nuff said. Go ahead and moderate this, if you like. -- -- Jussi-Ville Heiskanen, ~ [[User:Cimon Avaro]] _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
