I am pleased to announce (after far too long of a delay, my apologies),
that Mark Hershberger and Markus Glaser will take on the task of
managing the third-party releases of MediaWiki for another year.
Congrats Mark and Markus!
I'd like to explicitly thank the International Consortium team for their
proposal. The choice was indeed a hard one to make and I'm glad we had
the second proposal to add context and perspective to Mark's and
Markus's.
There will be a few changes to this work this coming year, mostly in
terms of transparency. Mark and Markus have agreed to conduct quarterly
reviews for their work and the output of those meetings will be publicly
shared. That means you'll (soon) be able to see the quarterly goals and
their progress. Also, we hope to see more collaboration between Mark and
Markus and the wider community in the supportive work; the work that
everyone can help with to make the releases as good as they can be.
We'll be monitoring this collaboration in review process over the course
of the year and we currently plan to call out collaboration goals in
next year's call for proposals.
I look forward to another year of working with Mark and Markus!
Best,
Greg
