Hello Romaine,

The weekly summary is great to have, but for more transparency it would be nice to have a time line, or otherwise a clear (expected) date when the next big change will be (like with the deployment of new MediaWiki versions). Reading the e-mails and reading on meta, I almost only see the technical changes which are coming, but for the communities on Wikidata and Wikipedia's it would be great to know when the next step in content adding will be possible.
Also it would be nice to have a list of those things that will be possible in the future, but have no date yet to be implemented. The reason for this is double: * On local communities I notice a lot of stories, fables and myths of how Wikidata will be in future, but often with no ground. * Also there are a lot of things that would have potential on Wikidata. Yes sure, I can add it to Wikidata:Contact_the_development_team but already my last comment is archived somewhere and out of sight.
So what you want is a diffent view on things like
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikidata/Development/Current_sprint
or
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikidata/Status_updates
?
More a table where all features of the single status updates are listed in a table with red, yellow or green background? They should also be divided into Categories, that it's a little easier to follow the development by watching one single view.
Something similar to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefox#Release_history
?
Sorry, this will maybe be possible with phase III, and we still do not have it ;-)
But in the meantime we could create such a table on our own, maybe on [[meta:Wikidata/Development]]
