This doesn't answer my question, which was:
_When_ will the board _review_ [the task-forces output]?
I'm sorry I didn't answer your question, John. Please note that
I'm
neither on the Board, nor am I part of Board meetings, nor do I serve
as a conduit for them; the agenda for Board meetings is set by Sue
together with the chair of the Board and other Board members. My
understanding via Sue is that they'e focused so far on the high-level
priorities articulated in the strategic plan, and my sense is that if
individual task forces have items that they'd like to get the Board's
review or input on, they should bring this to the attention of the
Chair of the Board (tchen at wikimedia dot org) or an individual Board
member they know. But others can chime in and correct me on this if
needed.
To elaborate, this particular task force recommendation was called to my
attention shortly before I completed my term as chair, but we did not
have an opportunity to put it on the agenda in that brief window. I
relayed it to Ting as part of our transition of responsibilities, so it
has been passed along, and no doubt people are welcome to inquire as to
its current status. But since I'm no longer privy to board
deliberations, I can't provide much insight on its perceived priority
relative to the larger strategic issues facing the board.
