Hi all,

I've put this on Meta:

https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Cascadia_Wikimedians#Drafting_programs_and_an_Annual_Plan_for_our_first_year

I'm hoping that people will comment so that we can get a sense about the priorities of our group. The Board can use the comments to finalize a program plan and an associated budget. The budget will be developed to support the program plan.

I'm still working in the background about the "infrastructure" budget for issues like insurance, but even these will benefit greatly by being informed by a program plan.

One important note is that the plan will likely be adjusted and adapted as our capabilities and opportunities change. My thinking is that the Board can do this via quarterly review meetings with community input.

Please share your comments!

One gateway to the wide garden of knowledge, where lies
The deep rock of our past, in which we must delve
The well of our future,
The clear water we must leave untainted for those who come after us,
The fertile earth, in which truth may grow in bright places, tended by many hands,
And the broad fall of sunshine, warming our first steps toward knowing how much we do not know.
