What is the current status of the WCA? The last update I can find is an email from Ziko to this list on 24 August (a month and a half ago) saying there would be a full report soon. Have I missed that report or are we still waiting for it?
Yes the report did not happen. Here is my update sent to the Chapters list 2 days ago to avoid any confusion about what is planned:
Subject: Re: [Chapters] Calling for WCA meeting ... A more detailed email is being prepared explaining the supported recruitment process that we expect to establish the Secretary General by the end of this year. I am recommending that: * this is not dependent on finalizing a budget, as we can now confirm sufficient budget commitment to the WCA to, at a minimum, have sufficient to cover wind-up costs for the SG after employment * the process will "piggy-back" on the WCA committees already formed, however I would expect the recruitment process itself to be open to all Council Members at every stage * I have asked for a telecon schedule to be published on :meta next week, so that Council Members can ask questions of the recruitment manager and be updated on progress through out the recruitment process.
I want first to raise this as a proposal with the Council Members, to check if we need a resolution and a vote or they are content to proceed. This will be the key purpose of the above email being prepared. So I am being naughty in telling you first on this list before we do that. :-) <<<<
