We should first check what exactly is being proposed and how this would influence the projects, the Foundation and maybe other related groups. Only when we find that indeed there is a large negative impact either on the projects themselves or on the Foundation's possibilities of hosting and supporting them, are drastic methods of protest a good idea. And only at that point it could be decided that turning some site on black would be the best definition of 'drastic method' for the case. -- André Engels, andreeng...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
