This is just what came into my head in ten minutes. There is tons of interesting stuff that could be done. Please do some if intend to come to Wikimania :]
I don't, sadly :-) but it's also interesting for Commons press releases.
Here's a somewhat-related question: I have ideas for press releases to drag the general public to Commons at a *fantastic* rate. But do we want that?
+ more good stuff under free licenses + awareness as a separate project - 10% copyvio rate as is; need more copyright paranoid admins ready to just go through crap allll the tiiiime - search still sucks - Commons is not Flickr - will people try to use it as their personal gallery? - what to do when people who don't quite get it realise what they've done (e.g. released pictures of selves or kids under a free content licence) and want to change their mind? - stratospheric bandwidth bills. You think it's bad now.
More pluses and minuses please.
I still think Wikipedia got way too popular way too quickly and I would be much happier if it were a Top 100 site rather than a Top 10 site. It would also be cheaper in bandwidth.
