Hey all.

As some of you may already know, I have a busy real-life period coming up in the next two weeks. As such, I'm unable to write my regular Technology Report [1] for the English Wikipedia-based (but cross-project) ''Signpost'' online newspaper. I know plenty of people on this list are familiar with the report, so I wondered if we couldn't crowdsource the effort in a totally commitment-free way.

Specifically, I've put some skeleton notes up at [2] (this week's report) - so if you're interested and even moderately familiar with the house style (or capable of reading a couple of reports to deduce it), please please please flesh out one of the sections (it needn't take long: the In briefs only take 10 minutes each, I find). Or if you know something interesting that's happening that fits the Wikimedia/MediaWiki+Technology+News criterion for inclusion, please do add it. (Do remember to add plenty of context though.)

It would be a shame to miss a report that's read every week by 800 to 1000 people across the globe. Oh, and it's one of the few times you get to put your name at the top on an article :)

Thanks, Harry (User:Jarry1250)
