Perhaps it's time that the WMF changes it appraoch then, and puts its discussions, documentation, ... online? It can't be that you have anything to hide, surely? Or worse, that there is nothing to show?

Anyway, as long as you have no evidence for your claims about prior discussions and so on, I don't believe anything of it.

And the point of this discussion is to get the WMF to change their approach drastically, so that they don't come across as a bunch of totally incompetent losers. Which is the effect you have with putting things into production which have no useful new features, but has abandoned all the useful old features for no good reason at all, and then come here afterwards to ask for feedback.

But I'm glad to see that if we haven't made our list of deficiencies exhaustive, then you consider the things that haven't made our listed as "not important", "not needed", "not wanted" apparently. Yes, you totally have the right idea there, everything we haven't yet complained about is a real gem to treasure, and everything we haven't said is missing can be safely discarded.

Have you perhaps considered that most people give up after noting the few most glaring deficiencies and realising that the WMF hasn't put any thought at all into this? Comments like "At best, I'd say that this tool seems useless in such an early stage. I even fear that some fundamental requirements may have been overlooked and that this early stage is not even a good basis to make the tool evolve into something really useful." say it all, really.
