Hi,
I was just wondering if any of you looked at the IEG page on a mobile phone:

Although the initial goal of the Netflix Prize was to design a
collaborative filtering algorithm, it became notorious when the data was
used to de-anonymize Netflix users.
Publicly identifying anonymous Wikimedians, especially with reference to
their editing histories, is not just an academic way to make a point; it's
messing with people's real lives, and it's not something I'm particularly
comfortable seeing suggested, especially for a reward, on a

Lodewijk,
See the following category on the WMF site:

Well,
first of all, welcome Kourosh.
I'm looking forward to see how the reality of this exciting job description
gonna look like. For me this also sounds like a clear move to a more
politically positioned understanding of this aspect of the growing
importance of the Wikimedia-Movment globally.

I worry that encouraging people to do this to prove a political point could
be inappropriate. It's one thing to point out a potential privacy flaw, but

The recent Newsweek story on the Wifione / IIPM admin corruption case[1]

Thank you for the link. However, what I was looking for, was more of a very
general description of the difference between the titles in use: director,
manager, chief, etc. More in... an encyclopedic way. A link to a relevant
Wikipedia article would do the trick too. An organizational
