by Terry Boke 25 Nov '24

25 Nov '24

Dear Affiliates, As we approach the September deadline for General Support proposals, we recognize that Wikimania scholarships will never be enough for all of us. We therefore encourage you to consider allocating funds to support one or two folks from your community to attend Wikimania 2025 in Nairobi. We look forward to making Wikimania 2025 the most inclusive and accessible and doing this will significantly help achieve this goal. Thank you and we look forward to your participation. Sincerely, Wikimania 2025 COT

[Toolforge Sustainability Roundtable Follow-Up] Your Input Needed: Refining Toolforge User Stories
by Slavina Stefanova 26 Sep '24

26 Sep '24

Hello! We hope this email finds you well. During Wikimania, some of you participated in the *Toolforge Sustainability session*[0] or the *Tool Sustainability lunch meetup*[1]. Your insights during these discussions have been invaluable. We've transformed the initial feedback* into 25 user stories, but we believe there's room for improvement. We're reaching out to ask for your help in expanding and refining these user stories to ensure we have a comprehensive understanding of the needs of different audiences (Toolforge admins, tool developers, tool end-users) and how they impact the long-term sustainability of the platform. Your Task: 1. Review the existing user stories in this Etherpad[2]. 2. Add your own user stories or suggest improvements to the existing ones. 3. Feel free to comment on any aspect you find relevant. While we especially welcome input from Wikimania participants who engaged in tool sustainability discussions, we encourage all members of the Toolforge community to contribute their perspectives. Your continued input is crucial in shaping the future of Toolforge. We would greatly appreciate your feedback by October 6th. Thank you for your time and ongoing support. Best, Slavina on behalf of the Toolforge Team *This includes feedback gathered from Toolforge Admins in a separate process.
