Oh no nothing so nice I'm afraid. I'm a person who takes a genuinely internationalist view. > The Historical Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina holds 400,000 artifacts. > > Any National Cultural Institution closing is a disaster. How much did you care when Birmingham's Museum of Science and Industry closed? Cold hard maths says that the Bosnian institutions are of only limited international significance. The fact that the English Wikipedia articles are not only short but lack interlanguage links to any other languages including members of the south slavic diasystem particularly doesn't look good. But even if we accept them as first rank institutions that we really should care about, the funding issues appear to involve a bunch of local political and ethnic issues that it is unlikely that anyone at the foundation really understands. So trying to get involved would first involve understanding what is actually going on which we don't really have the resources to do. -- geni _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
