That's a good idea, Sam, thank you :) This is a renewed initiative in
holding more conversations between communities and product teams that have
a slightly different focus than requesting specific feedback, so we didn't
manage to post to multiple VPs (one notice did go to en.wp's yesterday) ,
but it's a good idea for next time. I want to set up more office hours,
round-table conversations, and other points of conversation in the next few
months, so there will be more opportunities for outreach.

I have a section up at the CL meta Discussion page [1] with some questions
about good place to post for this kind of conversation. It's a bit
different than calls to action around specific product requests and
feedback, so new ways of thinking about it are encouraged.

Cheers,
