My understanding is that one is meant for internal, vs. external developers, focusing specifically on WMF projects. The description states: "Coordination of technology deployments across languages/projects" and looking at the archives it is mostly about localisation issues. My impression was someone like a student or corporate wiki administrator would have little interest in it - at least based on the description.
However, if I am wrong, perhaps we can merge the two? Ambassadors seems like a strange name to use if it really is meant for announcements about Wikimedia/MediaWiki development. At the very least the description would need an overhaul since several people did not see that list as being an overlap. -greg On 30 Jun, 2012, at 2:59 AM, Platonides <[email protected]> wrote: > On 30/06/12 07:23, Gregory Varnum wrote: >> wikitech-announce will be used for occasional announcements on both >> MediaWiki and broader Wikimedia developer related news items > > How does the new wikitech-announce compare with the existing > wikitech-ambassadors? > They both seem to have a similar scope/contents. > > > _______________________________________________ > Wikitech-l mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
