Is there any limit for a number of buddies?
Let's not overcomplicate things.
I suppose that one WMF employee can have more than 1 non-WMF buddy, otherwise the limit of non-WMF people at hackathon would equal number of employees :P
Revise your algorithm. :) While WMF employees must find non-WMF buddies, non-WMF employees can buddy up with other non-WMF employees.
Pine, the initial idea of the buddies came up in an Engineering Community team meeting around the MediaWiki Developer Summit a few weeks ago. We have discussed it a bit in a couple of Phabricator tasks, a wiki page, and (in the past 24 hours) in two mailing lists. I don't think the Wikimedia Conference in Germany or any other event currently scheduled has even heard about this concept. If you like it, please advocate for it. :) _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
