I agree.
1: we could ask for volunteer wikipedia diplomats:
polyglots who are
willing to inform various communities about policy and software
discussions taking place that may affect them.
I think this is a sensible suggestion, although like you, I wonder if
many people have "enough zeal" to do this regularly.
I like most of your other suggestions, too, although I wonder if we
would keep them up after a period of good intentions.
It seems likely to me that the software will stabilize in major
respects on the current codebase. Policy almost never changes in any
major ways.
