Sj,
I'm addressing this question to you because you seem to be the most active
trustee in the areas where I checked for trustee activity, and also because you
were one of the authors of the “Building a lasting movement” workshop
submission to Wikimania 2012. I would also be interested in hearing comments
from other trustees.
This information is from April 2012 to present, showing the number of posts and
edits by each trustee.

I would appreciate hearing your comments about these statistics and about
trustee activity levels in general. Do each of the trustees demonstrate a
strong personal interest in the health and direction of the Foundation and the
volunteer community? Do each of the trustees participate actively at Board
meetings? Do each of the trustees proactively and regularly communicate with
Foundation staff, volunteer contributors, and/or organizations which have
significant interactions with the Foundation or the content projects?
Personally, I feel that a vibrant, engaged, and proactive board is important
for the health of any public nonprofit organization, and for “building a
lasting movement” for the near future and for future generations. I think of
Wikipedia as a digital “wonder of the world” and a remarkable work of
civilization. I hope that the trustees take a strong personal interest in the
health and future of Wikipedia, its sister projects, and the foundation and
people that sustain and build them.
Thank you,
Pine
