Hi Chris,

I wonder if we can use Phabricator as an incubator for IdeaLab proposals?
We already have the #possible-tech-projects tag in Phabricator [1], which
seems like a sensible place to discuss the ideas amongst the people who
have ideas in this area.

I know there is some cynicism about the upcoming Wikimedia Developer Summit
in January, because it seems like a great opportunity to talk about what we
want, but then not have a strategy for getting it done.  That seems
justified, since "resourcing" seems a constant refrain in these
conversations.  Would anyone from IdeaLab be available to be at WikiDev
'16, looking out for appropriate opportunities to get from ideas to
IdeaLab(tm) grant proposals?

Rob
