We are nominally collaborating for a couple of years now, although for a reason or another we haven't go any volunteers. See http://www.socialcoding4good.org/organizations/wikimedia From the WMF side we haven't insisted much either, partially because of our growth in internships via outreach programs, partially because I wasn't sure how willing would be our dev teams to try this model (this was before Aron Arcos joined us as volunteer). If you are interested, we can ping them back. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
