Now, is there
anything WMF can do to advocate free content? Is that
political or entirely in accordance with our goals?
I would say everything WMF does is advocating free content. You can
advocate something through actions, rather than words - often works
better, too.
the area in question however is based aorund original research which
we don't deal with much.
This more falls under the open acess movement
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_access
And are dealings with them are sadly limited.
Again, through their actions - use free content.
Can't use free content if it doesn't exist and in this case it does
not. Mind you in the short term I feel that that article is as
effetive as anything we could create.
