Sylvain, I can't speak on behalf of the Polish Wikimedia chapter, but personally I think that this is an excellent idea, both for PR and media reasons, and of course it may potentially have an influence on our future contacts with the institutions of the EU (dreams, I know).
Only if we could manage to have not only the award ceremony, but maybe also a couple of accompanying events, too? Wikimedia Poland will organise an exhibition of the winning POTY pictures in late September, and I think there will be no problem with lending the materials for the ceremony in Brussels if there will by an interest in that.
You have my full support for the idea and if you'll need an official help from our chapter, just let me know; I hope that other people will also find the idea interesting.
