You should come join us (the MediaWiki Stakeholders). We have a room on Phabricator[1] and will be meeting this Friday online[2]. I would welcome you and any others who want to participate in this WMF-affiliated user group of third-party MediaWiki users. I think you'll see we share many of your concerns, but we're using our relationship with the WMF to make our concerns known. For example, we met with Victoria Coleman and others from the WMF this January at the Wikimedia Developer Summit[3] and had a very productive conversation. I'd like to think that parts of Ms. Coleman's recent announcement were influenced by that meeting. Markus Glaser and I were at WMCon[4] this past weekend and I will be writing up a report about that probably later today. I hope to see you in #mwstake! Mark.
