É interessante assistirmos a mobilização dos diversos capítulos da wikimedia foundation.

Hi all,

please find below the summaries of the activities of WMNL in december. The activities are somewhat lower, since the end of the year involved a lot of things that are not worth while reporting (financial statements, annual report blabla). This will most likely be the last report from this board, because on January 31 there is a general assemblee with board elections.

The annual chapter report for 2008 can probably be expected around march/april this year (hopefully before the chapters meetup in Berlin). Evaluation of the annual national conference will also be concluded this month, and if interest is there, I can translate the core results in English.

If you have any question, please let me know.

Yours,

Lodewijk

Content Online Platform On the suggestion of Angela (and Wikimedia Nederland), Esther Hoorn has been invited as an expert to the Content Online Platform. Topics include protection of minors and cultural diversity online.

Legal Wikimedia Nederland has won the legal case against Sijthoff. This because the judge agreed with Wikimedia Nederland that Wikimedia Nederland has no legal or technical influence on the content of the projects.

New year cards Wikimedia Nederland has sent new year cards to its members and allies. People who has meant something special to the association received a hand written note. Besides this, invitations have been sent for the new year drink on January 17, which is organized in Amsterdam together with Creactive Commons Nederland and Open Streetmap NL. We have already had quite some positive feedback on them.

Press Quite some attention (side news) for the outcome of the legal case. Mostly positive'ish towards Wikimedia. Also interest for the 10k articles for the Frysian Wikipedia (including interview on Omrop Fryslan) and some minor subjects for more foreign issues.
