The Community Resources team at the WMF recently held
a consultation
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IdeaLab/Towards_a_New_Wikimania>
on articulating the value of Wikimedia movement conferences overall, the
unique value of Wikimania, and what new form Wikimania could take to better
serve the movement going forward. We have completed analysis of these
results and have prepared this report:

I will be working with the community, organizers, committees, and WMF in
2017 to begin set up and planning for an experimental model for Wikimedia
movement conferences, including Wikimania, starting in 2018.
Feedback and comments are welcome at the discussion page

Thanks to all who participated!
On behalf of the Wikimania Committee, I would like to thank everyone who
took part and the Community Resources team for organising this discussion.
The Committee will consider these recommendations and will then come back
with some changes to our processes.
Yours,
