It's probably worth nothing that WMDE has, in fact, already earmarked staff (and a budget) to do the migration aspect of this. Silke Meyer (I think) heads that effort. On the other hand, there are a number of tools on which projects rely that -- even if they do not need help migrating at this moment -- could benefit from continued support. Perhaps the current efforts by the WMDE staff can be used as a model for how chapters can contribute on the engineering aspects of the projects? I'm sure they are gathering a great deal of experience in how to do this thanks to the migration efforts and the ongoing work on Wikidata. -- Marc _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe>
