Thanks - thats really odd to me.<p>The whole timeline reads really weird to me as well - with people entering and exiting the WMF so fast - I am of the external subjective opinion that <i></i><i>at least some of them</i><i></i> were simply extracting money from the WMF.<p>It reads as if they may have negotiated some exit packages and literally just took them.<p>That is a LONG list of &quot;directors&quot; which I could be completely off-base here, but unless the env was far more toxic than is being presented, <i></i><i>SOME</i><i></i> of these people certainly extracted personal value from being there a short period.<p>The fucked up bit though is none of that; it is that wikipedia is now a foundation of who we are digitally as a species, and to see that there is <i></i><i>SIGNIFICANT</i><i></i> apparent risk to it falling apart is extraordinarily alarming to me.<p>One of the emails sent said that the risk to domain&#x2F;innate&#x2F;tech memory leaving with the exodus impending from eng is super scary prospect.<p>If I were someone well monied at Google, I&#x27;d step in and buy the whole ordeal as it is a major part of who we now are, both digitally and organically.
