[Wikitech-l] Mediawiki core has reached to its 400th contributor

[Amir Ladsgroup]

Hey,
Today I was checking mediawiki/core in github:
https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki
And number of contributors is now 400. It might be a little more if we
count SVN era.
To me, it's an important milestone. More important than number of commits
or releases. It's about people not numbers or lines of code.

Re: [Wikitech-l] Weigh in on whether to finalize "Creation and renewal of the Committee" section of Code of Conduct

[Matthew Flaschen]

To clarify, this discussion is specifically about "Creation and renewal 
of the Committee". which is the last section of "Page: Code of 
Conduct/Committee".  I've clarified the subject line accordingly.


I appreciate your participation.

Thanks,

Matt Flaschen

[Srishti Sethi]

Hello,

Almost two weeks ago, the Technical Collaboration team invited proposals
for the first edition of the Developer Wishlist survey!

We collected around 77 proposals that were marked as suitable for the
developer wishlist and met the defined scope and criteria
. These proposals
fall into the following nine categories: Frontend, Backend, Code
Contribution (Process, Guidelines), Extensions, Technical Debt, Developer
Environment, Documentation, Tools (Phabricator, Gerrit) and Community
Engagement.

Voting phase starts now and will run until *February 14th, 23:59 UTC*. Click
here on a category and show support for the proposals you care for most
. Use the 'Vote' and
'Endorse' buttons next to a proposal to do so.


*What happens next?*Proposals that will gather most votes will be included
in the final results which will be published on *Wednesday, February 15th*.
These proposals will also be considered in the Wikimedia Foundation’s
annual plan FY 2017-18.

Cheers,
Srishti
