Dear all,
As of 4th February 2006, the board has approved the initial members of the Chapters Committee. All details can be found here:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Chapters committee.
The chapters committee's primary function is to assist in the creation of Wikimedia Chapters throughout the world (see http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_chapters) as well as assist the existing Chapters in their day to day relationship with the Wikimedia Foundation. Those goals and duties will be refined with time.
Please feel free to ask any questions or give advice on the meta talk page and add to our todo list.
Delphine
PS. to the translators mailing list. If you could translate this and send it to your respective language mailing lists, this would be grand. Thank you. -- ~notafish
