I've always found the 'Super product' oriented approach a bit broken and I was really missing teams working on the foundations of 'what we already have'. As long as multimedia related, more focused projects regularly pop up in the calendars of these new teams, I'm satisfied. I do think that everyone is accepting that there is a LOT of work to be done on Multimedia. It's just that there is a lot more low level platform work required to get any product teams for Multimedia to a state where they are able to fly. Let's hope that by increasing the velocity and using the lessons learned from last year icw stronger platform teams, we will quickly be able to get to a stage where a 'better' Multimedia project can stand on the shoulders of giants. thx Team, DJ _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
