Popping back earlier in the thread a bit: The statement "The Board has decided unanimously to back Lila's continued tenure," was false. The statement "The Board has decided to back Lila's continued tenure," was true. The exact nature of any dissent doesn't need to be publicized, and really the very fact that there was dissent doesn't need to be publicized, especially because in what is generally considered poor governance WMF BoT uses a lot of straw votes to avoid opinions being recorded transparently - but one of the earlier statements is true, and one is false. They aren't very different statements, and honestly, I do not understand why the false statement was chosen.
The Board of Trustees needs outside review. In what should be an exceptionally transparent movement, they use practices that other nonprofits that don't have the same values of transparency that we have get slammed for. --- Kevin Gorman On Tue, Mar 1, 2016 at 12:31 PM, Nick Wilson (Quiddity) < [email protected]> wrote: > Craig, I believe it is all free (not purchased), per > https://www.google.com/intl/en/nonprofits/products/#apps#tab5 ("Google > Apps > for Nonprofits") > > On Mon, Feb 29, 2016 at 6:27 PM, Craig Franklin <[email protected] > > > wrote: > > > My understanding is that the Foundation purchases certain technical and > > apps services (cloud email, for instance) from Google. > > > > Cheers, > > Craig > > > > On 1 March 2016 at 12:15, Risker <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > > > > > I cannot for the life of me imagine what Google sells that the WMF > would > > be > > > interested in buying, so I'm finding your example a bit weird. > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: > > https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines > > New messages to: [email protected] > > Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, > > <mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe> > > > _______________________________________________ > Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: > https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines > New messages to: [email protected] > Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, > <mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe> > _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines New messages to: [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe>
