Hi everyone, I've only posted once before here, and didn't do much of an intro back then, so let me do one now. I'm the Program Manager for General Engineering at Wikimedia Foundation, which is the slice of the WMF Engineering organization that does infrastructure-related software development. One piece we're responsible for is the analytics infrastructure. We're in the process of planning our software development for analytics for the coming months, so we've had a few conversations, and Howie Fung and I spent some time planning and writing up our thoughts on feature prioritization here: http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Task_force/Analytics/Feature_prioritizat… This is a really rough cut, and something we haven't fully discussed within the Foundation, so don't take this as something that is coming down from on high. There are some things on the list that are well underway, but many things are things we're just getting started on. Barring any objections here, we'd like to use this mailing list as our primary venue for discussing general prioritization of analytics features. We know we need a place that we can tell WMF employees to subscribe if they're interested in this stuff, and nothing we're discussing should be confidential. Rather than starting a new mailing list, we'd like to try using this list for a bit (in combination with relevant talk pages on documents referenced here). If it turns out we're generating enough traffic to warrant splitting off or if this list isn't working out for whatever reason, we'll figure out some alternate plan. While we suspect that many of the details will be of specific interest to Foundation employees (who are relying on much of this information to perform their jobs effectively), we also know there is plenty of general interest in this work. Please feel free to share your thoughts. Thanks! Rob
