At the MediaWiki Developer Summit 2015, we experimented with the definition of main themes to structure the call for participation. The schedule had room for any topic proposed, but the identification of main themes served as catalizator for sessions considered of high priority.
Defining main themes in advance can also guide travel and travel sponsorship decisions. In San Francisco we came up the themes when most of the registration and travel was booked, but we have still time to do things properly for Lyon and Mexico City.
Please add your proposals for main themes below. Good candidates for main themes include Wikimedia software priorities, project meetings, collaboration with external projects, topics of local relevance...
The resolution of this task requires consensus with the #ArchCom and the Wikimedia Foundation engineering management. Also, who should own this task?
