Re: [Wikimedia IE] Irish Language Act in Northern Ireland

I saw on the news that there are discussions underway for an Irish Language Act in Northern Ireland which may include funding support of up to £20m. [1] Is anyone interested in getting together to put forward a proposal for a project supporting the Irish language projects on Wikimedia? We may also be able to apply for funding from Wikimedia UK, which has recently raised over £40,000 as part of the fundraiser and is looking for worthwhile projects to spend the money on. [2] A skeleton proposal for WMUK funding has already been started [3] Is anyone on this mailing list active on the Irish language projects or interested in getting involved in something like this?
