2. Eric-Jan Eric-Jan's email
   • To me a strategy is no more (or less) than a plan of action to achieve our long-term goals. These goals should be defined and are consistent with our mission and vision. So, step 1 is to define long-term goals and step 2 is the plan how to achieve these goals. The plan comes down to: Who does what and when should it be ready.
   • As far as strategy and goals are concerned, last year we have been mainly focusing on facilitating MediaWiki Stakeholder membership. This should be finalized by a working payment system and by getting new members on board. The acquisition plan to find members was adopted in April 2020.
   • There are 2 current initiatives that require to determine our position and role on the strategic agenda:
     1. Project Canasta
     2. MediaWiki Open Source Content Services Platform (MOSCoSP)
   • We could revitalize and review our workboard as potential input for our goals.
   • What’s our position to conferences as the recently held SMWCon Fall 2020 and the scheduled EMWCon Spring 2021?
   • To summarize for today’s agenda I would propose to discuss the long-term goals and the linked plan as concrete deliverables.
