Gerard, if this is the first project outside of wmf concerning wikidata, what is the first project including wmf?
Well, actually we are talking about Wikibase, which is the extension that Wikidata uses, not Wikidata itself. This project is allegedly the first non-WMF to use Wikibase, since the first (and only) WMF project is Wikidata.
Then again, we all know Wikibase stemmed from a WM-DE idea... :)
Adam Shorland, from the Wikidata development team, gave a presentation at the "Spaghetti Open Data" conference in Bologna, Italy on Friday (his participation was sponsored by WM-IT) and we had this funny moment like: * question from the public "Are there examples of use of Wikibase outside Wikidata" * Adam: "Not to my knowledge" * Me: "Actually yes, EAGLE..."
We (as "Wikimedia Italia") did not advertise the project very much :)
