*We hope to continue to grow the number of people involved in our programs until we can confidently say that we are providing the best help possible to the hundreds of volunteer developers, designers, technical writers, and end users of the Wikimedia movement's APIs and services. *
Thank you VC for sharing this news and the important focus of these changes.
Congratulations all around, with a special shout out to Sarah R and her evolving contributions to the organization.

That is great news, congrats and thanks to all involved! Support of Wikimedia/MediaWiki developers and software reusers has gone through a quantum leap in the last year or so, and this is another solid step towards creating a more healthy FLOSS ecosystem.
I'd also like to echo what Trey said: while some of the largest problems with our open source ecosystem (such as documentation and the lack of public roadmaps/guidace) have been settled or are being settled reassuringly, code review remains a pain point. And while that's something that will need the support of all Technology/Audiences teams, there is still need for a team that can push for that; I hope Technical Engagement will be empowered to do so.
