Thanks Joe (and Matanya) for the speedy replies. I’ve added a comment on the talk page of the report. 😊

And I have an easy answer! I wrote up the feedback we received into a report that you can read here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2017/Post_mortem/Report The committee will be working on taking the feedback onboard ahead of the next election cycle, which is (at the time of writing) the FDC elections in 2019. Let me know if you have any questions about the report. :) best, Joe -- *Joe Sutherland* (he/him or they/them) Community Advocate Wikimedia Foundation joesutherland.rocks On 16 October 2017 at 11:14, Chris Keating <chriskeatingw...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello all and particularly the Elections Committee! > > I just wondered what is happening in terms of post-mortem on the elections. > There was a call for comments on Meta - is there any kind of active review > by the Election Committee happening?
