Hello folks,
An information that you could find useful : since the beginning of
Wikidata, the project and the development team (led by Wikimedia Germany)
were funded by the Wikimedia Foundation, through the Funds Dissemination
Committee, and by third parties. From now, the Wikimedia Foundation will
directly fund expenses for Wikidata software development. The two
organizations signed an agreement to have direct funding at least for the
next 3 years. This is good news, showing the strong support of our project
by the Foundation and will allow us more stability in the future.
