Thanks for explaining that. You said that two of the main goals were "to improve our engagement with the community during product development, develop a more audience-based approach to building products", and yet you do not mention any discussion with people outside the organisation over their needs and aspirations and whether the new structures under consideration were more or less likely to deliver them – some people might see that as a missing element in the process. Perhaps you could say a few words about how the new structures will improve cooperation and collaboration in order to"better serve the movement". You do see a need for improved consultation, cooperation and collaboration with the community, don't you?

The team working on maps, the search experience, and the project entry portals (such as Wikipedia.org) will join the Readers team. This realignment will allow us to build more integrated experiences and knowledge-sharing for the end user.
Does maps going to readers mean that there will be less focus on editors tools for adding maps to articles and more focus on the readers possibility to interact with the maps? If so, what is actually in the pipeline for maps?
