There is one important issue which I missed to emphasize. I haven't listed the problems which we should solve after which we would be fine. I've listed the problems which are produced by the systematic problem, which may be worded as 'we don't care a lot'. The part of that systematic problem from the past -- we didn't care a lot -- brought us to the situation where we are not able to list our functional problems.
So, I don't think that we have to start to work on particular problems (if they are not urgent). We have to start to work on the systematic problem.
I must disagree that the systematic problem is that we don't care enough. I would say it is that we cannot communicate effectively. The barriers to communication throughout Wikimedia are real and not just due to some lack of caring.
