Jimbo, is this okay for you? Do you have any wishes or worries? The association will support all Wikimedia projects, not just Wikipedia. We will support the whole international project, and transfer part of the donations to the foundation if this is legaly possible, but focus on the German-speaking projects. Of course we're not planning a fork, and of course there is no cabal, at least not a German one.
