hi,
let me clarify - asking WMDE was an independent decision of the FDC, and not of the FDC staff. The FDC reached out to WMDE regarding this request, and the FDC staff has assisted us since then. The sentence is thus true, although may sound misleading.
best,

Thank you Winifred. These appear to be very good, and I largely agree with the assessment.
I know that the WMF FDC staff did not review the WMF submission; it was partially reviewed by WMDE. In the first sentence of the introduction to their report they say "In order to avoid a potential bias assessing their own proposal, WMF/FDC staff have asked Wikimedia Deutschland (WMDE) to do the staff assessment of the WMF's proposal."[1] This is not consistent with what the FDC chair and members told us in the thread on Wikimedia-L. Did the WMF/FDC staff request that WMDE do the assessment?
