Hola,

We wanted to update you with our proposal on how we are thinking on how to
create a program for the Architecture Summit coming January. We started
grouping the RFC's from https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/RFC into clusters at
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Architecture_Summit_2014/RFC_Clusters. This
clustering is neither perfect nor complete and we would like to ask your
help with finetuning the clustering.

The idea is that a cluster contains RFC's that belong to each other -- this
means if we discuss RFC A and therefore RFC B needs to be discussed as well
then those two RFC's should be in the same cluster. Clusters should also be
small, probably not more than 3 or 4 RFC's per cluster. Sometimes RFC's in
the same cluster will offer alternative suggested implementations,
sometimes, RFC's are closely related because they pursue a similar goal.

Currently, we have one big cluster called 'General Mediawiki Functionality'
and this list definitely needs to be broken up in smaller clusters. The
'Misc' cluster can probably also broken up in smaller clusters.

Once we have nailed down the clusters of RFC's then we will run a strawpoll
to gauge interest for the different clusters. The strawpoll will inform our
decision which clusters should be discussed at the Architecture Summit. We
want to launch this strawpoll at the latest on January 2nd, 2014.

Summary:
1) Help us finalize the clustering of RFC's on
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Architecture_Summit_2014/RFC_Clusters
2) Participate in the strawpoll once it goes live (probably January 2nd),
separate email will follow.


If you have any questions, thoughts, suggestions, remarks, etc, etc please
let us know!

Best,
Diederik
