This is the third departure of a WMF employee who was involved with the 2015 Inspire Campaign. The other two were Luis Villa [1] and Anna Koval [2]. The response to that ideaLab campaign [3] figured significantly in the program of Wikimania 2015. [4] The Wikimania 2016 schedule for Esino Lario, however, seems to have few or no accepted submissions on community and governance, [5] and if I understand this correctly, there will be no Wikimania 2017. It's hard not to conclude that Wikimedia is transitioning away from being an open source community movement.
