This thread is going in many directions, and I'm enjoying reading the
conversation.
If I may go back to some questions that I asked in my earlier post, I would
like to hear from Katherine (or someone else at WMF, perhaps Anna):
* How much is this timeline extension projected to cost, and from what
source are the funds being drawn? (Note that this doesn't assume that the
decision was a bad one, but I very much want to know the source of the
funds and how much is likely to be drawn from it.)
* Could you elaborate on the benefits of this timetable change for people
who are not involved with affiliates? We've seen some responses from
Strainu and Yaroslov (thank you both!) and I would like to hear WMF's
perspective.
* Could you also discuss what measures are being taken to control costs in
the strategy process?
Thanks,
Pine
