Hi Pine,
It might be because of the alcohol I've ingested these last days, but
- what are you proposing exactly?
I think Pine is just proposing people read the text and/or links, and consider what Big Data means for Wikimedia.

Correct, I wasn't proposing any specific action. I was thinking, "Big Data is a cool topic, it's a big topic in its own right, it's relevant to several aspects of Wikimedia, and other people might be interested in reading about it or thinking about it in relation to work that they're doing or priorities that they have".
Happy new year,
Pine
