eloquent than I can summarise those reasons, but I think that they were

I had wanted to keep out of this, but this is the third or fourth time
that Jan-Bart has been referred to as "Jan". It was an understandable
enough mistake to make the first time, but it's been pointed out
enough now that that is no longer an excuse. We do not all have to be
best of mates, but it
Hi All,
Firstly, congratulations to Phillipe on a very richly deserved promotion!
I'm sure that you will do very well in your new role.
However, I must concur with Lodewijk in stating that the idea behind the

Personally, I find the whole "WikiLove" extension to be a bit naff and
schmaltzy. I'm generally not thrilled when I get a WikiLove kitten or
anything, just like I'm not touched that my local member of Parliament has
thought to send me a form letter about how hard they're working for me.

I'd caution against putting too much faith in those raw numbers without a
clear understanding of what they mean. They can make sense comparing
different language editions of the same project, but comparing different
projects is apples and oranges. For instance, some months ago I was doing
some re
Let me again say that it's great that the foundation actually asked editors
what they thought. Clearly the actual design of the survey left much to be
desired - people wanted a question along the lines of "is this filter a good
idea (y/n)," and didn't get one. I'm a bit disappointed that for as m
