Hi Jake,
Thanks for the news. I am glad that there will be another opportunity for a Wikimedian in Residence.
However, I request that none of us use all caps in subjects on the mailing lists, and that we be very limited in our use of tags such as "important". There is a large volume of information that comes through email, and threads that seem important to one subset of people may not be important to other subsets of people. Two tags that I'm somewhat okay with are (1) "time sensitive", although in practice what I often find that "time sensitive" means is "I, the sender, am late in sending this email and am requesting that other people hurry because I am late", and (2) "breaking change", which I occasionally see on technical mailing lists.
I hope that this makes sense.
Thank you,
