Thanks for all the feedback and edits, guillom!


 * Re: What "tools and resources" are you talking about? An example or two would be helpful. – I've added a few examples (mw-bot and the mailing lists.) In the case of mw-bot, it's factoid db can be updated.  In the case of the list archives, these can't be altered - the links listed in the various messages need to be preserved.


 * Re: Do you really mean "Wikimedia" here? Or MediaWiki? I'd say MediaWiki, but the context doesn't really help disambiguate. - When I started writing this plan, it had a larger scope and an underlying intent to be applicable to many Wikimedia projects. Now that I've trimmed the scope back, I should change this. Thanks!  The name soup that we swim in sometimes baffles me. :)


 * Re: What seems to be missing is how we can actually get there. Perhaps it wasn't part of the deliverables, but without a clear action plan it's difficult to really know where to start. – I've left that bit out. It was part of the deliverables and an earlier draft of the plan, but I had a change of heart on how to get there.  I'll add details on my current thinking shortly.
