Greetings All,

I'm happy to report that we've finished our released candidates and that
this afternoon we'll be submitting version 1.0 of the Wikipedia Android
application for a very quiet launch. I stress .. a very quiet launch. We
don't want any large publicity at first. Our current plan is to push to the
Google market today, Amazon & F-Droid market next week, and to do PR after
we see the reviews coming in late next week. That way we have time to do
any fixes or workflow tweaks.

Many thanks to the mobile team for getting this out and specifically Yuvi &
Brion who worked some furious hours to get us to this point.

I'll post a link to the store after its published and you should get your
friends to try it. But no need to push it to any major news sites .. not
yet at least.
