That's welcome feedback, Marc. Half of the board meeting in Berlin two weeks ago was devoted to discussing ways to better help the community and contributors; this point was important enough to have a separate meeting about it today. There is now a page on the strategy wiki to summarize and link to related proposals and essays. Please feel free to add to it: http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Openness_and_Participation Sam. PS - I would like to give props to the Audit Committee, which does great and sometimes less visible work -- they compile an annual risks assessment, which thoughtfully addresses things far outside the realm of financial risk. "Declining participation" was the top risk in late 2009, and helped drive related strategic research and discussion. Thanks to that group for helping to focus attention on this.
