This is all lovely, but I am still unclear as to what you believe you are disagreeing with me about. > I figured > you would confirm this by reading the code. I didn't see much point in rereading those provisions, because I didn't understand what exactly you were taking issue with me on. I'm not sure anyone else does either. Perhaps someone else could explain your disagreement with me, because I'm drawing a blank here in what I'm reading from you. >> What this has to do with WMF or the Russian-language Wikimedians' >> activism is still beyond me, however. > > Nothing.
