Hi

The author of this email is a relatively new volunteer to Wikipedia, who has 
taken on the responsibility of coordinating the CVs. The idea is to send CVs 
of staff, i.e., of committed volunteers with some credentials. This would 
include the board and developers, but also prominent users. If anyone is 
uncomfortable sending this information to him, you may forward it to me. It may now be 
too late, though I still hold out hope, however, it is something that other 
grants will want too. I can assure you that I will protect your privacy and 
foreward the grants directly to whomever is taking care of the particular grants in 
question.  

For the record, Alterego has told me that he is an American citizen living in 
Italy and that he is a journalist. From his impeccable English and his IP, I 
have no reason to doubt this, though I can understand people's reluctance to 
give personal information away so quickly. 

In the event that this information is needed for other grants, you will be 
asked again in each instance whether you mind having your name attached to the 
grant. 

Thanks,

Danny
