Thanks, Tom. If you don't mind I'll put it on the talk page; this will
likely require some discussion to answer.

Thanks for posting this, Phoebe. My question about
what you intend to
do over the next 3 years wasn't answered. There is no point waiting
three years and then re-evaluating the situation if you haven't made
sure you've been gathering all the right information during those 3
years and that you are clear on what the questions you are actually
trying to answer are. As a movement, we have a very poor record of
following through on our trials with proper evaluations and that is
because we never actually plan them out at the start. It is really
important that we don't make that mistake again here.

Hi all,
The Board has published a Q&A document around the recently published
fundraising & funds dissemination resolutions.
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fundraising_and_Funds_Dissemination/Board_FAQ
It's quite long -- sorry! -- but hopefully informative. Note that we
did this as everyone was traveling and, in the interests of time,
didn't put it up for a final vote -- so not every trustee may agree
with every word, and we reserve the right to edit :)
The first section of the FAQ, "overview", focuses on board process for
coming to a decision and a summary of the decisions; the next two
sections focus on specific questions about the resolutions' content
regarding fundraising & funds dissemination plans. Some of the
questions we were asked this past weekend already, and some of them we
are anticipating might be asked.
If you've got more questions, please put them on the talk page; if you
want to discuss the resolutions themselves, there's a talk page on
meta:

all best,
phoebe
