I think you should be concerned. After reading that story I think more
fondly of WMF and less so of Wikinews. I would expect more of Wikinews
than to just issue press releases.

Credit for the English language writeup goes
mainly to Jason Safoutin.
My main contribution was getting the documents to do the report from

ghopher).
Do you have PDFs of those documents? I'd like to know in what way they
mentioned our work, and specifically our various projects - on their
(brief) website list, they only mention Wikipedia.
But yes, congratulations on the article(s) to all involved - and
congratulations to, eh, us (Wikimedia). :-)
(Side note - I had actually never before seen the page which is linked
to in that list on WEF's site: <http://www.wikimedia.org/>!)
