Hello Josephine,
this is really good to hear. And a very good move from the Foundation. I
hope that in the future there will be more such support from the
Foundation to the community software development and intiatives.
Greetings

Hi all,
A quick update re: the Upload to Commons Android app:
- We are now considered an 'official' app and have been granted
permission by WMF to use the Wikimedia Commons logo and name. As such,
the app is now named "Wikimedia Commons"
<https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.free.nrw.commons>
instead of "Upload to Commons", and its icon has been changed to the
Commons logo. Ownership of the app should also soon be transferred to
the WMF Google Play account. On a practical basis, there should be no
change in the use of the app and it will still be maintained by
volunteers.
- I am happy to announce that my IEG proposal for further work on the
app
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IEG/Improve_%27Upload_to_Commons%27_Android_App>
has been selected. :) I will be starting work on it shortly, so there
will be regular releases planned for the next 6 months. Bug/crash
reports and feedback are welcome on our Google Groups forums
<https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/commons-app-android
<https://groups.google.com/forum/#%21forum/commons-app-android>> and
GitHub page
<https://github.com/nicolas-raoul/apps-android-commons/issues> as always.
Have a great day!
Cheers,
Josephine
