Hi Erica,
Thanks for keeping us posted on progress. In my timezone it is past midnight. On my to do list is scheduling a WikiSaturday to test VisualEditor with a group of Wikipedians, and also scheduling WikiSaturdays and other sprints for TemplateData. I'm still recovering from jetlag, I've been on a three week roadtrip through Eastern Canada after Wikimania. The new season is slowly starting in the Netherlands. Current energy focus is with Community Health conversation and developing annual plan of WMNL for next year.
Regarding your question about outreach and edit-a-thons: I'm personally not so involved with these, but will try to reach out to those who are.
Feel well, and have a nice weekend,
Ad Huikeshoven
