Hi everyone,
The next strategic planning office hours are:
Wednesday, 04:00-05:00 UTC, which is:
-Tuesday (8-9pm PST)
-Tuesday (11pm-12am EST)
There has been a lot of tremendous work on the strategy wiki the past
few months, and Task Forces are finishing up their work.
Office hours will be a great opportunity to discuss the work that's
happened as well as the work to come.
As always, you can access the chat by going to
https://webchat.freenode.net and filling in a username and the channel
name (#wikimedia-strategy). You may be prompted to click through a
security warning. It's fine. More details at:
http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC_office_hours
Thanks! Hope to see many of you there.

Is it true that {{header|previous= |next= }} must be filled
in manually for each chapter? Couldn't this be automated
in the same way as ProofreadPage links "<" and ">" in a
linear sequence, if you provide the table of contents in
a central place? If that TOC contained the page number
intervals and sections, everything in the chapter page
could be automated, right?
Is it true that full text search leads to to the Page:
and not to the main namespace page that transcludes it?
And that the former has no link to the latter?
If I search "the right understanding of the machine",
I find
http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Page:The_Kinematics_of_Machinery.djvu/24
but I don't find
http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/The_Kinematics_of_Machinery/Introduction
How could that be improved? Is another Extension necessary?

Oggetto: [Communia] Europeana launches its Public Domain Charter
Data: Tue, 4 May 2010 07:13:58 -0600
Da: bernardo parrella <berny(a)cybermesa.com>
A: communia(a)lists.communia-project.eu
The Europeana Foundation has published a policy statement, the Public
Domain Charter, to highlight the value of public domain content in
the knowledge economy. It alerts Europe's museums, libraries,
archives and audiovisual collections to the fact that digitisation of
Public Domain content does not create new rights in it.
The document highlights the Public Domain as a "shared resource that
underpins contemporary societies" and it "provides a historically
developed balance to the rights of creators protected by copyright."
This initiative strengthens the recently-launched Public Domain
Manifesto goal to protect today's cultural landscape particularly
relevant to education, cultural heritage and scientific research --
thus ensuring that it can continue to function in a meaningful way.
The Public Domain Charter is currently available as a pdf download in
English, French, German, Spanish, and Polish.

I dragged a little into the very interesting template Iwpage, but I couldn't
fine a doc about its second parameter, and about the related Lst. Is there
some work in progress? Where can I find some doc about if any?
