They most certainly were.
Of you remember at the Board meeting in Coventry we went through them very
quickly. Chris then created a sort of triage document tht led to an
absorbtion of as much as was practiclly possible. This helped populate the
bid to the FDC and I have produced this pared down version.
A lot of the ideas, it was felt, could be accommodated within the project
grants programme, other that were more ambitious needed to wait until
funding could be found.
Worth emphasising perhaps that a lot of the budget has room for flexibility
as the year progresses.
Anyway please chip in.

Out of interest, were any of the comments at
http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/2013_Activity_Plan/Ideas taken into
consideration in the drafting of this? Obviously not all suggestions could
be implemented (finite budget, hours in the day, etc), but it would be nice
to see some followup so that those who made suggestion feel like they
actually contributed something. I don't think any were completely insane
(though some perhaps impractical).

*Subject:* [Wikimediauk-l] Revising the 2013-14 plan
Dear community,
For those of you who have been following these things you will know that
our budget for next year is likely to be a little over £700K following the
grant decision of the Foundation's Funds Dissemination committee.
The board discussed this in November and I was asked to produce a revised
programme. The trustees have been looking at this revision and now seeks
community input.
Email me directly if you have any queries.
