That's a good idea, Sam, thank you :) This is a renewed initiative in holding more conversations between communities and product teams that have a slightly different focus than requesting specific feedback, so we didn't manage to post to multiple VPs (one notice did go to en.wp's yesterday) , but it's a good idea for next time. I want to set up more office hours, round-table conversations, and other points of conversation in the next few months, so there will be more opportunities for outreach.
I have a section up at the CL meta Discussion page [1] with some questions about good place to post for this kind of conversation. It's a bit different than calls to action around specific product requests and feedback, so new ways of thinking about it are encouraged.

Thanks Rachel, this sounds interesting & seems of broad interest! Perhaps worth announcing on some of the larger WP's too?
I've always thought some of these weekly meetings would make interesting banners for only logged-in users; set at a low % or # of total impressions to match the amount of participation you'd like to see. Depends on which body of users you want to reach.
Warmly, SJ
