Part of that is separating decision-making from any benefit that results from those decisions. Community input will be vital in further developing things like our GLAM programme, and we are planning to formalise that with things like a formally-constituted GLAM Committee. It's very likely that that programme will in future involve more Wikimedians in Residence and more staff. What we can't have is a situation where someone on (say) a GLAM Committee is helping make decisions about where Wikimedia UK is seeking to appoint Wikimedians in Residence, or what their contract should say, and then applying for one of those Wikimedian in Residence posts. I hope this makes sense. Thanks, Chris
