Hi all,

A good example around this subject was the Visual Editor tool
implementation, strongly opposed by the community in the beginning, and
developed by the WMF, as it was probably necessary to turn Wikipedia into a
more modern website.

A lot about the latter can be found and read as a real example of this
debate

The cultural behavior of the group is a big factor on any technological
implementation on the Wikimedia world, and to change culture, you need much
more than money.

Sorry if this was mentioned before.


Cheers,
