Hi, this is a request from the organizers of the Wikimedia Developer Summit 2016 (San Francisco, January 9-11).
I think you mean 2017, otherwise the listed dates don't make sense.
Who specifically are the organizers of the Wikimedia Developer Summit 2017?
I have a question for the organizers: will the summit be open to anyone or will it be invitation-only as it has been in past years? Who decides this?
Regarding main topics, I think we should make it easier to log in to Wikimedia wikis and control your identity when on-wiki. Specifically, supporting login via e-mail address, case-insensitive login, and a user-configurable "display name" field that's shown in page histories, on user pages, etc.
I'm interested in volunteering to provide feedback about the upcoming summit. I've attended one or two summits in the past and I have thoughts.
