Hi all,
Some months ago we started to define a statement of purpose for design at
Wikimedia. We shared our initial iteration and got useful feedback. Based
on that feedback, we have updated a new version:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Design/Statement_of_purpose
Please, feel free to check the updated version, and provide any suggestion
in the talk page.
If the statement just sounds as a logical, simple, and obvious description
for the purpose of design here, that was the goal. Putting this in writing
has been helpful for designers and people working with us to get into the
same page, and will be useful in the future to achieve the level of support
for design we envision for those areas where we are not there yet.
Thanks to everyone that has contributed to the process.
