Really great job this week, Tony1 and Jayen466. Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 02:54, 17 May 2016 (UTC)
Thank you Signpost team (esp. Tony) for taking the time to report on this (and for having done some MoS editing on the report itself). It is the press' prerogative to highlight issues it sees as important, of course, but I hope that the decision to highlight a couple of negative comments to specific teams in the Signpost summary doesn't give give those comments undue weight. Not the least of which is because we [the members of the FDC] also wrote compliemtary comments. More importantly, is that we went to a lot of effort to try to write a report that was "actionable" at all levels - not only high level comments to the board and ED, but also comments to each departmental area, and also comments to the level of individual programs/goals (in the tables of the 'appendix'). It's a delicate balance between being too high-level to be useful, and too low-level that's just 'bikeshedding'. So, further down the report to the WMF, the more specific the feedback becomes. if something was important enough for wider attention, then it would appear in the department-level comments, or the overall comments.
What I'm trying to say is that I hope our main feedback to the Board doesn't get lost: namely that our chief recommendation is that the Board undertakes a proper externally run review of itself (including but not limited to the scope we specified) and that it does this before a permanent ED is appointed.
