Hey, > Otherwise, projects [not sponsored by WMF] will end up delayed until After Wikimania/After fundraising/After next scap... > So people would probably continue committing to trunk "because it's the only way to know it will eventually be reviewed".
After being a non-core, non-WMF community member for over 2 years, I'd say this is definitely the case. It's the logical outcome of the WMF giving priority to it's mission over MediaWiki as a platform, which is perfectly reasonable, so this is not criticism on anyone. Reason for this post: I've seen the above argument downplayed or simply rejected by several people before, while it's definitely important in getting contributions by people not on the WMF-payroll.
