[17:02] <FT2> that one got discussed last night
[17:02] == PeterSymonds [~Peter@wikimedia/PeterSymonds] has joined #wikimedia-sopa
[17:03] <vvv> What was the decision?
[17:03] <FT2> "heart's in the right place, wording could be improved". SOme UK Wikimedians were working on a version to suggest too
[17:03] <FT2> will try to find a link
[17:03] <vvv>
http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/27728[17:04] <gmaxwell> even when the plackout is over that should get added to the page that will be in the residual banner.

[17:12] <sgardner> Fluffernutter: yes to a postmortem! If somebody wants to start a meta page, that would be superb. A good format for that kind of thing is to focus on next time -- "keep doing X," "stop doing Y," and "start doing Z."
[17:12] <sgardner> Fluffernutter: if you start a page, I will contribute :-)
[17:12] * Fluffernutter nominates someone with organizational skills to do it. Which isn't me >_>
