Przykuta is absolutely right. Big milestones do not have much effects on very large languages right now, but they are a rare opportunity for other languages with still little media attention.
I would also remind that we should (could) very possibly have a new fundraising drive soon... and it might be a good idea to reflect in which order to do the three events * fundraising * 2M * wikimania

Most major newspapers and magazines have already run stories
on us, it's not like we need to tell them we exist.
That right, but I think rather not about en:wiki, but about other Wikipedias. In Poland for example we need to awake newspapers before Wikimania. For others - ukrainian, hungarian, vietnamese... info about 2M IMHO propably will allow more new wikipedians that info about Wikimania. So, one event + second event... and sleeping will be awaken :)
