Hello Aryeh,

Thanks a lot for your prompt and informative input.

Obviously special thanks goes to Thomas Dalton for swift move for consultation.

All other details are taken already to direct mailing between two
chapters (Wikimedia UK/GB and Wikimedia UA) in order not to bother (or
bore :) ) mailing list members.

Thanks again to everybody involved and contributed.

Regards,
Pavlo Shevelo
