Hi Garfield, Thanks for this update.
* Is this intended to be the last annual plan, as WMF shifts to a quarterly planning cycle? If so, how will Fundraising know how much money to raise each quarter/year? * Are SMART goals documented for each department? If so, where can we see them? * I see that there are many new proposed FTEs but I'm unclear on what SMART goals those FTEs are intended to address. Is there a page that documents clear links between the FTE hires, the SMART goals for their departments, and explanations of how current capacity is insufficient to address the needs that these new hires are addressing? I support making targeted in FTE increases that are clearly linked to goals and/or filling gaps, and I would like to see those links in this document or in an appendix. I am very interested in hearing what my fellow Wikimedians think of this document, particularly those who have experience with managing our affiliates and those with FDC experience.
