Hi all,
I need help getting the message out about a redesign of the Wikipedia globe. We're going to be rendering the entire globe in 3-D, and we'd like community input on which characters should be included on the "hidden" pieces, as well as correcting the errors and inconsistencies in the active logo.
I've created a new page, http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia/logo, and would like to draw attention to it from people who have been active in the discussions as well as including anyone who may be interested via the local projects' village pumps.
So, this is where Comproj comes in... getting the message out that we're looking for interest in this project. Thanks!

As soon as I've finished this bloody thesis about Wikipedia - only 7 days to go - I'll get back to recording more eps. of the Podcast. I'll make sure to make a call out to the 3D globe when I do.
By the way, I'm interested in doing a roundtable interview episode for the podcast with several people elected to the committees of various of our different chapters - to discuss what issues every chapter is facing, and what is unique about each one.
Does anyone who reads this list want to be in on that, or would like to pass on the message to the secretary of their chapter. My skype details are below.
All the best, -Liam

We might want to get some nice bot owner to spam a message to all the village pumps[1] (but send it to only the Wikipedias), something along the lines of [2] maybe?
CC'ing to two possible bot owners that could help, Misza13 because of his MiszaBot and Millosh (this is similar to his "Hello world!" project).

Might want to ask someone to forward this message to internal-l (chapters people are on there)[3].

I like the sound of that approach. Anything that makes 'casting the net' easy is a big plus in my book!
