Dear all,

As you may know, earlier in the Autumn Wikimedia UK and the Wikimedia Foundation appointed Compass Partnership to conduct an independent review of our governance. The review is well under way now and Mike Hudson and Keith Smith, the governance experts conducting the review, have already started conducting interviews with key people.  

As well as identifying people to interview, there is an open call for comments by members of the community for the review to consider. This call for comments has just been published on our blog:

If you would like to take part, please read the questions posed by the Compass Partnership in their blog post and send your answers to wiki@compassnet.co.uk.- this is a dedicated address set up to receive comments.

Yours sincerely,

Chris Keating

Chair, Wikimedia UK
