Perhaps she mistook the meta proposals for strat. Where, by all accounts, a proposal with nothing going on for the last year are lively, considering there are proposals on there dated as far back as 2004, a number of them dated 2006. For those who aren't terribly active in our community, seeing something like that, can't blame em for thinking the process is dead. After all, when was the last time the WMF opened a _new_ project (not a new language, a completely new project).

I'm sorry, this is incorrect. Strategy wiki wasn't even set up a year ago.
It was created in July. Proposals weren't accepted until almost August.
I'm willing to have this discussion, but let's do it honestly, and without hyperbole. ;)
