Re: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Research/Office_hours
The change from "office hours" to "individual consultation" has bothered me from the beginning, and I've finally reached the level of sadness that prompts a message here... Individual consultation can be great for the individuals involved. However, it leaves the rest of the community out in the cold, without possibility of benefit of knowing what is being discussed, learning by lurking, etc. So far as I've been able to discover, there are no minutes or logs of such consultations, so there's not even a chance to learn after-the-fact nor even to have a sense of what's being talked about. This makes me sad. Of course, the Tuesday Noon ET time slot doesn't work well for me anyway (it conflicts with the weekly call of the W3C Credentials Community Group), but perhaps a new time slot might be selected if Office Hours resume. The web page says "We will evaluate the success of this approach in mid-2023". It's now late-2023, but I see no sign of that evaluation, so perhaps I haven't missed my chance to make my voice heard.
