We've finished our second chit chat - and thanks to Danny Wool especially for coming by and talking about the issues he's raised recently. The first bit of the second ever NotTheWikipediaWeekly in which we all say hello, and talk about Danny's background in Wikipedia and Wikimedia - the annoying audio glitches stop after 1 minute and 10 seconds... - apologies for these! The second bit of the second ever NotTheWikipediaWeekly in which we begin discussion of the most recent developments and allegations... The third bit of the second ever NotTheWikipediaWeekly in which the issues of responsibility for sound policies on spending are discussed, the meat of specific allegations examined, and we try and figure out where it could all go from here..... Problems playing the files? See media help.
