[Osmf-talk] OSMF Strategic Planning 2023 - call for participation

[Craig Allan]

OSMF Members:

There is a general circulation to OSM users asking for comments on the 
OSMF strategic Plan. Below you'll see the letter which has been sent out.

We especially ask OSMF Members to please review the Strategic Plan.

Part B, about Community Development is the first part we ask you to review.

We'll send out invitations to review Part A, Part C and Part D at two 
week intervals.

Please sent public responses to the OSM talk list or to the Discussion 
Board General Page.

Private/Anonymous responses to strategy at osmfoundation.org.

thanks

=====================================================

*/2023 Strategic Planning Cycle – Community Participation/*

The Board of the OpenStreetMap Foundation is revising its Strategic 
Plan, and invites all OSMF members and the OSM community to participate 
in this process.

The plan is quite large, so we want to discuss it with you in four 
phases over the next two months. In each phase we focus on a different 
aspect of strategic development for the OSMF.

The first phase will be “Cluster B: Community Development for OSM”. We 
are looking for your comments for only this section for the next two weeks.

If you click through the link to “Cluster B: Community Development for 
OSM <https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Cluster_B>” you will find all 
the strategems in that cluster listed there.

We would especially like your feedback on just four questions:

  * What is missing from the plan? Or put differently, what should we
    add to the plan?
  * Are there any inconsistencies in the plan? Does the plan seem to be
    well aligned with the OSMF Mission
    <https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Mission_Statement> and the
    direction of the OSM movement? Where are any problems?
  * Which three strategems are most urgent? Which three must we do
    really quickly?
  * Which three strategems are very important? Which strategems are
    critical for OpenStreetMap to succeed and grow?

You may of course comment on anything else as well.

If there is debate on this topic on any of the hundreds of social media 
sites that host OSM-related discussions, you could help us greatly if a 
member of that site or channel please prepare a summary of the comments 
and post it (in English) to the team. We cannot follow all of the 
discussions on all social media ourselves but we do care to hear your 
voices.

We will mainly follow feedback in these two places:

  * The OSM community general forum on Discourse at
    https://community.openstreetmap.org/c/general/38/none
    <https://community.openstreetmap.org/c/general/38/none>
  * The OSM community mailing list which you can reach by sending email
    to talk at openstreetmap.org

You can send private comments to be read only by the strategy team at 
strategy at osmfoundation.org or you can write individually to Board members.

Due to our small team, we’d like comments to be in English. Machine 
translation from your language is fine. We have used 
https://translate.google.com <https://translate.google.com> and 
https://www.deepl.com/en/translator 
<https://www.deepl.com/en/translator> successfully but there are many 
others that work well.

Many Thanks

Craig Allan, Sarah Hoffmann, Allan Mustard
