Hello!
I have started a proposal for a new wiki project: WikiLang

Glad to know we have such calendar for Wikimedia movements. It makes me
think that maybe we should have some places on meta or internal to host the
calendar links for all Wikimedia chapters?
We also use Google calendar for Wikimedia activities in Taiwan and the
calendar is been shared to Taiwan Op

We have had contact with the authors of the blog and they have said they
will publish our response to their article, though I'm not sure when or in
what format.
This is the content of our response:
"The Wikimedia Foundation doesn’t hold any readers of our projects in any
less regard than others.

I am leaving the movement. I thought to leave it quietly, with just a
bit more than a few words to stewards and Wikimedia Serbia, but after
the first question why I am leaving, I realized that I actually owe to
many of you the explanation for leaving the movement after almost 10
years.

Milos -
What an emotional and touching letter. I know it's a hard decision to not
only leave the movement, but to know who you want to let know and who you
want to not let know about leaving - and I am glad you made the decision to
share your honest and emotional declaration with us.
As someone s
Milosh, thank you very much for your work during these ten years, and good
luck in your life and in the future. When you want to come back, you
already know that this is your home.
Best wishes!

Milos,
Again, I'm sorry to see you leave. I would like to thank you, thank you
very much for all the things you have done!
I loved to work with you in the LangCom, and I believe I learned a lot. And
I hope our paths will cross again someday.

From time to time, I think of a wikimedian and say to myself "oh, we
have not seen this one much around these days". Further checking, the
person quietly slipped away, few noticed the departure and we had no
opportunity to say "thank you and stay safe and happy in this other
future". It is a bi

Oh, and I knew that there were three unfinished projects, but I forgot
the last one.

Indeed :) Some sabbaticals are longer than others, but I don't think a
person ever stops being a Wikimedian, and t
Thank you, Milos, for your dedication and commitment for all these
years. I'm sure we will meet somewhere in the near future; maybe you
are leaving the Wikimedia movement but our concerns and wishes will
continue being the same.

Hmm, I found the office hours helpful because those were theoretically all
relevant to me. The overview you're making is unfortunately more aimed
towards chapter offices etc, and includes a lot of events which are out of
reach anyway. Having an Overview of All has its merits, but it does mean I

Milos,
Thanks for these words and I am sorry to see you leave. I think everyone
agrees that the entire Wikimedia movement owes you a debt of gratitude for
a decade of great work. Hopefully after some time away you'll miss us and
be back, but if not, whatever group you decide to involve yourself

I'd echo that and am looking forward to crossing paths again.

Thanks for everything, Milos. It's been a pleasure and I won't be at
all surprised to run into you again, if not in Wikimedia then in other
free culture circles. There are lots of unfinished projects indeed --
for me, seeing the movement tackle increasingly hard and complex
challenges successfully
