This is a placeholder about an idea that should not be lost between the cracks:
A Program Committee tasked to define the topics and activities prioritized for each international event, and to organize the corresponding calls for participation.
This committee would be responsible of defining a common strategy for international Wikimedia developer events, defining goals and measurements of success for each event.
One goal would be that Wikimedia Foundation’s Technology and Product plans move forward aligned with the rest of the Wikimedia technical community and related upstream projects thanks to good collaboration in various international developer events complementing regular online collaboration.
* Through a lightweight open process, a core Program Committee is selected with representation of Technology, Product, Community Engagement, and volunteer developers, latest by the Hackathon in Wikimania.
* When a new main theme is agreed for a new event, new members specializing in these themes are invited, and they leave when their duties for the related events are completed.
