Hi all,
Wikimedia Germany is sending out a press release about Wikidata today. The press release sums up the information that has been published on Meta since last Wikimania, where it has been first presented, and discussed and refined since then, including information about the donation that is making Wikidata possible.

We are very excited about the Wikidata development team starting on Monday. This also means, that in the future we will be communicating about Wikidata much more, as the development is finally starting. Yay!
I want to take this opportunity to thank the donors of Wikidata, the Allen Institute of Artificial Intelligence ai2, the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, and Google for the generous support, that enables us to work on the Wikidata project for the next year.
Exciting times are waiting for us, Cheers all, Denny
Can the link be forwarded now or should I await some formal anouncement?
