I am pleased to share with you the news about the formation of the latest team in the Technology department, the MediaWiki Platform team![1]
Thank you!
- Assist and encourage development of features for MediaWiki by
providing developers with a strong core.
- Facilitate the development and publication of MediaWiki's roadmap to
assist coordination between internal and external users.
- Maintain and promote guidelines and standards for the MediaWiki core.
I'm extremely grateful to see these three items in the list. The people chosen for the team (Tim, Brion, Kunal, Brad) are excellent choices and I'm confident that, with your direction and empowerment, they have the ability to fulfill these goals.
This is something that we (the MediaWiki Stakeholders) have been asking for and I'm very, very thankful that Ms. Coleman is implementing this.
Thank again!
