Could somebody tell me whether mimbo is Chris Williams or David Williams? I'm not sure.

Because apparently mimbo responded to a short poll here which asked how Chris Williams' answers to Henry Jenkins affected our opinions of FanLib. (Let's just say he's an outlier in the results.)

Also, is this a breach of netiquette if he is Chris? The questions not being exactly aimed at him and all . . . did he realize that anybody could see who answered what?

I don't think it's against netiquette, really. That poll is public and open to all, after all. As long as he doesn't show up with a sockpuppet army to tweak the result but just speaks for himself, it's all good, imho.

Though it'd be interesting to know whether he knew that people can see who voted how.

I agree - public post, public poll, and even politicians get to cast their vote in their own election. Not against netiquette.
