Re: [Foundation-l] Licensing update vote underway

As you've probably seen by now, the vote on a possible update of GFDL-licensed Wikimedia content is underway and will be closed by May 3. I've written a more detailed blog post here: http://blog.wikimedia.org/2009/04/14/vote-on-wikimedia-licensing-update-und… And, of course, the proposal itself can be found here: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/License_update There's plenty of discussion on the talk page. Translations (and review of translations) are still very much welcome. :-) I want to take a brief moment to thank the licensing committee and the translators, who have worked very hard in the last few weeks to make this vote possible. I'm really really grateful for their support. I also want to thank Tim Starling and Software in the Public Interest for their technical work to pull this together. It's not over yet, but still, I'm happy that we've made it this far. :-) Thanks, Erik -- Erik Möller Deputy Director, Wikimedia Foundation
