I would be happy for some input regarding the next genealogy newsletter.
we now have a good number of readers, and while some 4-5 users removed
their names from the list of subscribers, the rest will most probably be
happy to receive the next newsletter. And this is of course very positive,
through that newsletter, we have an information bridge to users who may
supprt ideas and suggestons, participate in votes, and help us take one
step further in the development of he genealogy project.
But! I dont want to send a new, nice newsletter, which they may read, and
then forget. I want this newsletter to actually make an impact, and a
difference for the project, and be much more optimized than the previous,
and more synchonized wth the fantastic possibilities we have, in order to
reach some goals!
So I ask for your help:
I believe the impact of that newsletter can be much better, if more than me
would be willing to give some time and energy, putting together something
with a clearer message, with stronger arguments, and with a better english
than mine.
So please, take some minutes and reflect on what possibly could be acchived
with the next newsletter, and how and with what content it should be
written?
maybe someone would care to make the entire letter? Othervise, please send
me some lines, or at least some advice and ideas for the content.
best regards, Dan Koehl

I expect a demo wiki should have Semantic extensions too - as used on
Familypedia (whence you may copy the templates if the demo is on CC-BY-SA).

Hi all,
Should we set up a demonstration wiki?
I'm thinking it might be good to have a wiki to experiment with different
things, such as software requirements. I have been tinkering on a Genealogy
extension, — it's super-basic and doesn't do much. (That's by design, really,
because I didn't want to build features such as citation management or image
handling that are not specific to genealogy.
It's probably not a place to put permanent information (although it could be
that too), but we could install MediaWiki at
https://tools.wmflabs.org/genealogy/wiki and start experimenting with things
there. Does that sound like a worthwhile thing?
My current aim is to get the Genealogy extension to support Wikidata. It'd be
good to have a place to demonstrate and figure out how this could work.
Thanks,
Sam.
