Hoi,
I had some conversations with people in the Dutch community. One thought was that Wikipedia already serves this role. Another was that it has failed before. My opinion is that these are new people and when the requirements are fulfilled they can have another go.
Thanks,

Hi,

Some people wondered about the state of Dutch Wikinews at
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_Board_noticeboard#No_answers_from_Language_committ.C3.A9e

There was already some discussion about it at
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Language_committee#Request_for_launching_Wikinews.2C_Dutch_version

and there were different opinions.

I'm neutral about this matter. Does anybody in the committee have a particular opinion on it?
