Yes, I know. This is the good moment (also here in Swiss and in Italy), but the newspapers always are finding news... when the news are not new, this the moment to kill the old news :)
Finally, I think that bad moments will follow. This is the moment to contact the journalists who write these articles and to offer the availability for new informations. This is the moment to construct references and links to manage the next steps.

Yes, for the French people. :)

No. Not really. Not only for french people. Each time we have a major media display in a country, the *whole* project directly or indirectly benefit from it.
I have been on Wikipedia for now 3 years and a half, and for all this time, I have been dreaming on us having an article in Le Monde. We had once a tiny little report in the cultural section. Very little impact. But here, we are featured on first page.
The impact of this is likely to be huge, because it means a sort of recognition. In particular we can expect
- more fear from all those we are currently in competition with, so
possibly more attacks 2) but mostly more interest from potential partners, be it firms, organisations, associations, academics etc...
The implications might be various. Possibly an impact on the publication
of a DVD (which might be interesting for more than just french people).
Possibly a partnership for publication of wikireaders (and similarly, why would we limit that to french language ?). Possibly a lever to negociate with organisations such as ESA, which would benefit all of us. And quite possibly as well, more donations, since we are currently in the middle of a fund drive (more money will benefit all of us).
We are together in this Ilario. Not just french, or just italian ;-)

We are in first page of Le Monde, with several pages included inside. Le Monde is the *first* newspaper in France. This is an amazing day.

On a DVD my father and a bussinessparter for his have been experimenting with a DVD edition for the nl.wikipedia. They are interested in a recent dump. Once they figure out all technicalities, we want to talk with the board about it.

Is that only on the website or also on "la une" of the paper version ?

Also the paper version... today's (3rd September) edition.
Which is...even more than great :D
Just to make things clear, Le Monde is not the *biggest* newspaper in France, as it prints only around 350000 ex a day, far from the first daily newspaper in France "Ouest France" (more than a million) but in terms of recognition, it is definitely one of the greatest. Making it to the first page of Le Monde is *big*.

Congratulations to the media attention! However, that article refers to http://wikipedia.fr/ and the website at this URL opens a frameset which includes fr.wikipedia.org http://fr.wikipedia.org. This has the unfortunate effect that the web browser's address field says http://wikipedia.fr/ even when I go to other articles, making it harder to find a bookmarkable URL for pages. It would be easy enough for fr.wikipedia.org http://fr.wikipedia.org to contain some JavaScript that escapes the enclosing frameset, but it would be better to change wikipedia.fr http://wikipedia.fr into a redirect instead of this evil frameset.

We do have such JavaScript, and it seems to work fine there in breaking out so fr.wikipedia.org http://fr.wikipedia.org reaches the top-level. (Tested Safari 2.0.1)
but it would be better to change wikipedia.fr http://wikipedia.fr into a redirect instead of this evil

Do we own or control it?
