summary
Lays out a clear two-year strategy with concrete initiatives: a prototype job picker to match skills to bugs, a switch toward Matrix for shared staff/community chat, a new installer built in Flutter that makes old contributions obsolete, and a Yataxis documentation framework plus refreshed community portal to replace the 2016-era site. Explains using the Orbit model metrics to track observers→advocates, calls for designers, data scientists and doc writers, and shows which contributions will actually be useful.
