Nuff said. Go ahead and moderate this, if you like.
It's all very well to say that you should be able to post as much as you like when something you feel really passionate about comes up. But if you can't get your point across in thirty posts over a month, maybe it's time to stop trying. These discussions have gone in circles for a month now, and it's the same five or ten people (yes, I am again being rhetorical, please don't bother checking that number) arguing past each other and posting their entrenched positions again and again. There's no reason to think that these loud people on foundation-l are representative of the community at large. There's no reason to think that any of them are likely to change their minds. And, as I say, at this point, they've probably made their arguments as well as they can. I don't think many people are even reading the discussion any more. -- Andrew Garrett Wikimedia Foundation agarr...@wikimedia.org _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
