Great to hear another Wikinews is about to launch. If sr.wikipedia has a newsletter you need to get a call for participation in it.
From the perspective of the English Wikinews we'd love if you can help
translate sr. stories over and someone should copyedit them. We get very little news from your part of the world and having local reporters getting stories out to a wider audience is always welcome.
We should be able to help you get set up with an RSS feed and a ticker like en.wikinews once you're public. I believe CraigSpurrier is the person to speak to about that.
Can you explain more about this arrangement with Beta? I'm not exactly clear if they're dual licensing stuff CC-BY 2.5 for you, or want to pick up your material, or - as is ideal - both.

Hi, I just want to say that sr.wikinews is finally fully functional :) OK, a number of other things should be fixed (for example, featured news is form September 30th), but since November 7th there are daily news from Serbia.
I hope that we'll get some new Wikinewsians in the near future.
I wouldn't go into the public yet because there are a lot of things to be fixed, but I hope that it would be possible during December.
BTW, is there any Wikinewsian near Serbia (or at least in Europe)? (OK, I know that there are some Wikinewsian from Europe :) ) It would be good to make Wikinews promotion in Serbia between January and March with foreign guests.
It should be mentioned that we have a deal with news agency Beta [1] for reemitting their short news. Explicitly, we have a deal for their news in Serbian. However, it is possible to make a deal for English, Albanian, Romani and Hungarian. (However, I see that there is only Wikinews in English.)
