The 2015 Call to Action identified the need to
Support innovation &
new knowledge
* Integrate, consolidate, and pause or stop stalled initiatives.
* Create spaces for future community-led innovations and new
knowledge creation.
* Facilitate and support new models and structures for knowledge
curation.
* Strengthen partnerships with organizations that use or
contribute free content, or are aligned with the WMF in the
free-knowledge movement.
Yet no-one at WMF seems tasked with driving innovation in the
community. I have started a Meta page for Innovation at
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Innovation to stimulate discussions.
I'm going to respond more on-wiki, but tl;dr: I disagree strongly that "no
one at WMF seems tasked with driving innovation".
Constructive suggestions welcome - no one wants to see innovation more than
me, trust me :)
