The original Wikipedia strategy may have been little more than 'produce 1000 Nupedia drafts in a year', but it has developed significantly over time.
Background
When the first elected Trustees took their seats on the Board, there were a variety of discussions about where the Foundation should set its sights.
- Early discussions: mailing list threads from Anthere and Angela from late 2004 were often about related topics
- Strategic goals: a few open meetings about goals, and some discussions on the wiki (1), ensued
The Mission and Vision statements were revisited in 2006/2007 to help lay uniform foundations for future work. The idea was for this to happen at least once a year, though we seem to have skipped 2008 – hence our 2009 strategy planning.
Strategic planning 2009
As of May 2009, A formal process of strategic planning is being planned for the coming year. Threads about how to proceed have been floated on foundation-l, and three one-year contracts to facilitate the process have been posted.
