For my part, I'm happy to offer feedback to the FDC on plans related
to the development of engineering capacity in FDC-funded
organizations. I'm sure Wikimedia Germany, too, would be happy to
share its experiences growing the Wikidata development team. I'd love
to find ways to bootstrap more engineering capacity across the
movement, as so many of our shared challenges have a software
engineering component. If any folks on-list want to touch base on
these questions at Wikimania, drop me a note. :)
