Credit for the English language writeup goes mainly to Jason Safoutin.
My main contribution was getting the documents to do the report from (chief ghopher).

Do you have PDFs of those documents? I'd like to know in what way they mentioned our work, and specifically our various projects - on their (brief) website list, they only mention Wikipedia.
But yes, congratulations on the article(s) to all involved - and congratulations to, eh, us (Wikimedia). :-)

I was a little concerned with our article we over-emphasised the WMF.
But after reading this,
http://www.reuters.com/article/pressRelease/idUS70441+29-Nov-2007+PRN2007112 9?sp=true
I wonder how much it costs to get a 2 page product placement on Reuter's newswire.

I can tell you that I used Google news before the embargo deadline and found these on PRNewswire. They, or the companies they covered, published early.

That is referring to their source. Much like when you read an article on a
news site which has Associated Press as it's byline. Cheers, Nathan
Yes, that's the reason I pointed it out.

I think you should be concerned. After reading that story I think more fondly of WMF and less so of Wikinews. I would expect more of Wikinews than to just issue press releases.
