Thanks for this Nick - the change is very helpful (for us in the UK
certainly) and I appreciate the strategy team's responsiveness to the
concerns raised!
All best
Lucy

Hi all,
There has been a significant update to the timeline today. Summary here:
"
*Notice of cycle extension (cycle 3 - July)*
We have had a great deal of activity this past week from organized groups.
Many have told us that the timelines are too short for them to engage as
deeply as they would like. In addition, most of the research from the New
Voices track has just been completed. To better accommodate the community
and organized groups, and create the opportunity to deeply consider the New
Voices research, we will be extending the schedule.
This will ensure that everyone has the time to review and digest the key
insights from the research and over 150 expert interviews, as well as more
effectively plan their conversations.
*July:* Cycle 3 - Engage with New Voices content and draft the strategic
direction
*August: *Share and finalize (including at Wikimania!)
*September: *Endorsement
"
I've copied this to the main Strategy page.

Much thanks, and have a good weekend!
