Talk:Wikimania 2012/Board Q&A

Kopimi license[edit]

I hope it is ok to respond to one of the questions without being a member of the board:

Could KOPIMI license be added to Wikimedia Commons as acceptable?

Jan-Bart: I think that we should limit the "on page" answers to board members (because they were originally questions asked of us, but this seems like a good place to answer this :) Jan-Bart (talk) 08:27, 23 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

WCA question[edit]

Without intending to speak for the present board, the question "What is the WMF's view on the Chapter Association? Could it help improving communication and vice-versa trust?" was to some extent answered in this blog post we published in April after the Berlin conference:

"hopes are high that the WCA will make a huge contribution to help chapters develop, and lift the relationship between WMF and chapters to a new level. The Foundation congratulates the chapters and looks forward to working with the new organization."
