Hi folks, One thing we're trying to do as we schedule WikiDev '16 is make sure that sessions are solving for one of five problems. One of the problems I've been trying to figure out how to articulate I think I've finally got some wording around, and I'd like your thoughts.
The question: "how do we simultaneously optimize the following conditions? 1) make software development more logical and obvious for all Wikimedia contributors, 2) make Wikimedia software more useful and reliable for the Wikimedia sites" This is an expression of a balancing tradeoff that I think we've implicitly made over the years, but I think it's time to make explicit. Ideally, new ideas should make both better, but sometimes we need to sacrifice one to make big gains in the other. Does that question capture an important idea? A lot more detail in Phab here: <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T119032> Rob _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
