Hi,
I noticed it through the Wikimedia server log and keep an interest how
it goes. Already one month passed ... could you please give us a
review and report, even as interim?

This is the good point. I am actually working on that. Seriously.

Think big Milos. Wikimedia Germany is even better organized than Kosovo. Let
Kosovo alone and put Germany in Serbia.
Now seriously:
Who do you think can succeed better promoting the projects in Kosovo,
Wikimedia Serbia, Wikimedia Kosovo, or both?
We are here to promote Wikimedia projects not to

Wjohnson, I'd appreciate it if you would take a little more care when
you quote my posts. Your repost made it appear as though what you were
responding to was originally written by me, as opposed to having been
quoted by me.
Don't forget, by the way, that there is a limit to the number of posts

Ehm, you probably misunderstood me. I did not try to say that they will not
be accepted, I tried exactly to avoid saying things like that. I think we
cannot make any decision on that - and that the question is more complicated
than it is put now. Chapcom has not been invented for academic matters,
A few posts back Peter linked to several philosophy-trained editors
who had left Wikipedia, representing them as examples of the problems
he has identified.
I think it's worth reposting here what one of those editors gave as
his reasons for leaving:

Hoi,
So you want them to first organise things with the understanding that they
will not be accepted as a chapter? In the language committee we have the
grace to first decide on eligibility and then decide if all the requirements
are met.
Yes I understand your reasoning but it means either that yo

Hoi,
I doubt very much that political considerations should be part of the set up
of a chapter. Asking the Serbian chapter for an opinion is fine. Giving them
a vote on this is not. Given that Kosovo is a separate jurisdiction means
that it fulfils the basic requirement. Given that Hong Kong and Ne
