Hi Daniel,

Great to see you here on the list!

The small, exploratory team working on it right now is part of the annual plan that is being submitted to the Board.

An approved annual plan is a commitment to fund the project. We do believe the project will be of interest to external funders. We’ll test that assumption and if there is interest, we will pursue grants in support of the project this year.    

The annual budget for the project will likely be in the same order of magnitude as Wikidata was when it was getting started, but the project is expected to take a longer initial time frame.

Cheers,
Denny
