Révolution de 2016/Locaux de la WMF
Pas San Francisco
A direct consequence would be that one should think again whether San Francisco is the best location for the WMF office, rather than a place better known for culture and education and less for proximity to Silicon Valley. Boston was named in the same discussion.

If we were choosing a location from the scratch - definitely. As it is now, I think that relocating would involve really huge intangible costs for our staff, and our staff is our unique asset. I would be cautious to rush any changes in this respect.

Le déménagement ne doit pas avoir lieu de jour au lendemain. Ça passerait plusieurs années (lequel est probablement le plus longue qu'un employé WMF passe dans l'organisation). Auparavant je pense que la discussion de ceci comme une direction stratégique soit bienfaisante pour le mouvement. Le fil s'était élevé plusieurs fois au passé, et je n'avais ps l'impression qu'il y avait aucun bonne volonté de le discuter du Bord / WMF. (Cependant je serait incorrect, et on sera reconaissant d'indiquer telles discussions).

Discussion générale
Considering relocation of the office (or, indeed, considering whether we even need a centralised office at all) is a topic of debate amongst staff. Lots of staff have opinions, some stronger than others. I imagine this debate will ultimately inform whomever decides whether we should relocate or not.

Boston was actually the runner-up choice when Sue Gardner was seeking a home base in 2007(?). The relative merits of the two cities were summarized in a spreadsheet, which Tim Starling (at least) still had as of April 2015.
