Last I checked there was plenty of room to expand the tech team's budget. So I hope the decision wasn't simply a matter of not having enough time. A collaborative project making free educational content needs free tools. Google knows about the importance of collaborative tools. That's why they created Google Apps. Hopefully there's at least a plan in place for eventually migrating back off of Google. Now, agreed, let's close this thread and move on to more important things: expanding the tech budget. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
