A lot of work has gone into preparing for the

Is there a particular reason it's being delayed until the 14th?
Perhaps because that would be close to the end of the Harassment
consultation, which is also being managed by other sections of the
Community Engagement department? And also after the Community Tech Wishlist
consultation? I'm thrilled to see so many attempts to reach out to the
community, but on the other hand if the community is asked to consult on
too many things at once, it can have a limiting effect on
participation. Running three major community consultations all at the same
time could turn out to be counterproductive, especially at a time of year
when so many community members are also deeply involved in activities
within their personal life.
