Hello all,
The TDMP Retro Committee has finalized the gathering and analysis of the Technical Decision-Making Process Retrospective and Consultation phase https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Technical_decision_making/Technical_Decision-Making_Process_Retrospective_and_Consultation_plan.
This document presents the findings of the survey conducted among the Wikimedia technical community regarding their perspectives on a technical decision-making process in July 2023.
The purpose of this document is to serve as a comprehensive summary, offering insights from the retrospective collection of opinions and voices within the technical community. It is not intended to provide a new decision-making methodology or devise a fresh process.
It serves to inform the next steps of the process of re-evaluating and adjusting the current technical decision making process.
The report is now available on MediaWiki at Retrospective and Consultation: Results and Analysis https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Technical_decision_making/Technical_Decision-Making_Process_Retrospective_and_Consultation_plan/Retrospective_and_Consultation:_Results_and_Analysis
Mark Bergsma (VP SRE), Tajh Taylor (VP Data Sci and Eng), and Suman Cherukuwada (Senior Dir Feature Eng) are taking on the responsibility to determine what changes to make to the TDMP. They will guide a process to solicit input and feedback on a proposal that will be open to staff and volunteer technical contributors.
Thank you,
Moriel, on behalf of the TDMP Retro Core Group.
