Content release

*Agreement with Vilapèdia so that their website is published under a Wikipedia-compatible licence. *At our request, the Emporion magazine has changed its licence to CC-BY-SA. Their material is interesting for Wikibooks and they have also made available their newspaper library, which includes all their issues back to 1915.

Media

*Espai Internet on TV. This month's articles: Impressionism, Webseries, Webby Awards, Web accessibility, Around the World in Eighty Days (novel). **Not all news were good. We couldn't find any volunteers to write Jaws (accessibility), thus losing the chance of having this article shown on TV. We need more volunteers, come on! *Saturday 29 at 5:00 pm. Interview on Radio Ona Mallorca. Users: Paucabot and Toni Salvà.
