MetaFilter Steering Committee
The Steering Committee is a group of Mefites who set and implement site policies and priorities, direct and approve budget expenditures, and act as spokespeople, champions, and mediators for concerns of community members.
The Steering Committee was formed in August 2022, in order to move towards a more community-governed model for MetaFilter.
If you have any suggestions, feedback, questions, or concerns for the Steering Committee, please email metafiltersc@gmail.com. If you would like to volunteer to help with special projects please fill out this form.
