On November 4 2003 Jimbo Wales announced, that 200 EUR were donated to register European domain names (http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikipedia-l/2003-November/012981.html). Did this ever happen? I wonder, cause as far as I know, many domains are still not registered by people affiliated with Wikimedia (.ru, .es, .co.uk, .it [.it at least redirects to Wikipedia]).
If the 200 EUR were spent for domains: Which ones? If they were not: we should make up that and spend the earmarked donation (plus additional money if needed) to obtain those domains (and ideally all wikipedia.xx domains).
