Tweaking a bit (also so that "Finally!" won't be misunderstood as a
jab at LangCom ...):

Finally! After two years of preparation, Odia Wikisource goes online
for over 40 million native speakers

I would modify "for free" because of the
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gratis_versus_libre issue. With that,
let's use this as double-down tweet:

Mountains of free books for over 40 million people. Odia Wikisource is
now online. https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/10/21/more-than-40-million-people-await-the-launch-of-odia-wikisource/

I like this one, although one could cut out "in the world". Also,
adding the mention of the group or page:

Despite more than 40 million native speakers, Odia's online presence
has been relatively small. But with the launch of Odia Wikisource,
that's changing. (Follow OdiaWiki [LINK] for more new about Wikimedia
