As I understand it, the FDC was basically suspended at the start of the movement strategy discussions, and hasn’t met since. The funding for affiliates was apparently maintained at a constant level during the suspension, and the future of the program depends on whatever the movement strategy outcomes are. As a former FDC member, it’s a sad situation to see, as the committee was doing valuable work that’s been lost due to uncertainty.
Hopefully the current FDC members / WMF staff / WMF board can provide more info on this soon...
