This topic has come up several times and each time, it seems like the people with any kind of power are conspicuously absent. Where is Danese? Is she subscribed to this list? Is she reading it?
As I read it, EPMs are directly beneath Danese and presumably have some say in how tech resources are used (thus "Manager"):

Software EPMs listed at http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Staff#Technology (excluding Usability) are Alolita Sharma, Tomasz Finc, and Rob Lanphier. Robla is the EPM in charge of General Engineering, which as I understand it is the group that includes most of the staff developers participating in this discussion. He's consistently commented on all of these threads, and is clearly reading them. So I'm pretty sure the issue isn't being ignored.
