Personally, I'd be happy if there was a commitment to be more mindful of working in public when possible in the future. I suspect that this release cycle will see the archive reorganization in place. I have seen indications that the MOTU Council is going to be folded into the DMB and heard that "MOTU is going away", but really have no idea what the plan is. I would encourage those in leadership positions to lean in the direction of over-communicating. MOTU is something that quite a number of people are proud of and have invested in. I suspect there will be bumps along the road, but with early and frequent communication and open decision making a lot of the potential bumps can be avoided.
