So I read the page that is linked. It says that their *DRAFT* report will be completed February 28. It does not say that it will be publishing its draft report. Presumably the draft will be reviewed by selected partners (particularly the WMF) before the final report is completed. That is due March 19. You have no reason to believe that the draft report hasn't been completed. Perhaps you could hold your concerns about deadlines being missed until the final report is due.

Keegan,
May I point out that the term on the timeline is "deadline", as in "commitment", not as in "estimate". I view commitments as serious business. I believe that in IEGCom we met our deadlines every single time when I was on that committee, the Signpost is published weekly with rare exceptions, and there were a number of nights as a WMF intern when I got less than 6 hours of sleep in my semi-successful efforts to keep my commitments to WMF and to my other employer. ( I do thank WMF for that internship, it was a good experience overall). Of course there may be variances from schedules on occasion (people do get sick, have their cars break down, etc), but I believe that Lila made a point in the All Hands that projects are to be completed on time, and I think it's reasonable that commitments should be kept whenever possible. I try to do this myself and I hope that WMF takes its commitments seriously too.
The report of the Finance Fellows will inform some of my thinking about Cascadia's budget and it would be helpful to have the draft published early this week.
Thank you,

Hi Finance Fellows,
The timeline for your work says that your draft report should be
finished.
May we look at it? I am very curious about your findings.
Thanks (:

I'd like to point out that the timeline estimates completion by February 28. This is (hemispherically) March 1. And a Sunday. I suggest some patience :)
