This appears to sum up the problem with this change: the usability team focused on some ideal of usability, and ignored the fact that they switched off an important path which people used to "freely share in the sum of all knowledge. That's our commitment." Was the Foundation mission statement expressly part of the usability initiative? Was the obvious conflict with the mission statement considered when the list was switched to collapsed by default? (That's a "yes or no" question, and I'd love to hear the answer.) - d. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
