We would like to proclaim this in a number of places including Wikinews, Foundation-l, and a few other places that might be of note with this all coordinated on July 10th. Slashdot was one of the suggested places as well, for instance. If there are any thoughts on how to "publicize" this milestone, it would be appreciated.
I might say to have at least a tiny mention somewhere on Wikipedia. A lot of Wikipedians have no clue what we do at Wikibooks, or even that Wikibooks even exists. I'm not saying anything huge, perhaps just a mention in a few places like Jimbo's Talk page, maybe AN, possibly the Village Pump. I know it doesn't seem like much, but I think it might be a good draw of some of our better Wikipedians to a Wikibooks that could use them. Just a thought. --LV
