Very nice. Thank you for putting this together.
I only really had one question after skimming the report: do you have any
further details about the OpenWebAnalytics work? The current report says
"We're wrapping up our work on OWA until we're able to hire our new
dedicated analytics team. In the short term, we're focusing our efforts on
A/B testing and other immediate needs, allowing the future analytics team to
map out a long-term strategy."
I thought at some point OWA was nearing deployment stage, but I haven't been
following the project very closely. I know it's something that both users
and the Wikimedia Foundation are very interested in. They're planning more
hires for this? Do you know how many, when, etc.? Any further details about
this would be appreciated.
