It is a pity to see it go away, but also how much of resources wasted, not just WMF funds to pay for running it, but also staff and especially volunteer time…
Again very very few learning points and 7day long exit is kind of illustrative of absence of good approach with the care.
I discovered this forum late enough (a month or so ago) and I’m sad to see it go without archiving what I expected it could be. Would have been quite a neat format to discuss and organize, but without an active community, there is no point.
@Xandru4 I felt exactly that over Wikimedia Space that @Qgil-WMF initiated… Unfortunatly history kind of repeated itself as Wikimedia Foundation and some of the key Wikimedia communities were not aligned perfectly so instead of finding each other mid-way and/or inviting external mediators/facilitators it looks like sabotaging each other remained the modus operandi :-/ of course at the exspanse of those who are least informed, represented, equipted and resourced.
