Hi,
It is with great pleasure that I can announce that the Wikisource Community User Group has been recognized as the 7th user group of our movement.
The group aims *"to support the Wikisource community in international communication tasks, outreach to external groups, coordination of software tools development, and facilitate fundraising according to its member needs."*
You can learn more about the group and how to join at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikisource_User_Group
The Affiliations Committee resolution is at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Affiliations_Committee/Resolutions/Wikisourc.... The group has already signed the user group agreement, their first round of recognition runs until 31 November 2014.
Please join me in welcoming them and wishing them luck.
Best regards, Bence Damokos Chair, Affiliations Committee
P.S. The Affiliations Committee is still accepting membership applications at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Affiliations_Committee/Call_for_Candidates_2...

Welcome and good luck. :) It is very encouraging to see people from sister projects coming together to try to work more collaboratively together inside their own language groups and to develop more formal ties with existing chapters to facilitate programming to support the work being done on them. :)
Sincerely, Laura Hale
Congratulations to the Wikisourcerers and Wikisourceresses!

Thanks :-)
The Wikisource Community User Group was born for gathering and coordinating local communities all around the world. We are (and we will) communicate mainly via the Wikisource mailing list (you can subscribe here [1]).
It is pretty cool that the Wikisource Community UG comes just in time for the Wikisource International Tenth birthday (yesterday Nov 24!) Some communities have organized a Proofreading contest, you can read about it here [2].
Furthermore, a survey has been conducted on several Wikisources [3] You will read about the results there, in few days.
Cheers
Aubrey
