Hi all,

We got some response from the technical community on https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T281977 and https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2021#Rec.... I have asked the Election Committee to compile the response.

If someone still wants to give their valuable feedback. I welcome you. More feedback will eventually help the committee to alter current eligibility criteria.

Regards,

Hello all,

As the 2021 WMF Board elections have been announced, I have proposed to reconsider the eligibility criteria for “developers” and technical contributors, as the previous criteria do not make sense any longer and exclude several groups of contributors.

A discussion has been started at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T281977 and https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2021#Rec... .

Please share your thoughts and feedback.
