I'm not sure if it's any more restricted than the summary says:

So basically "Tech Operations department".

WMF's spending plan says $12.4M on Technology 2011-2012:

BUT, I suspect the majority of that $12.4M will go to Features/General
Engineering, not Tech Operations.

Oh, well, we could always use another data center ;P
