Putting aside the disagreements we have with the WMF, WMUK and the WMF share
mutual objectives so I think it would be a good thing to have some sort of
formal liaison between WMUK and the WMF (and vice versa) so that each can
better understand the other. I have no strong opinion on whether that person
should have a seat on the WMUK board.

Feelings? I am with Fae on this one (I am a member of WMUK, AFAIK,
BTW).
