Hi,
Topic: Sandbox Server (http://beta.wikiversity.org/wiki/Sandbox_Server)
I have "speak" with Daniel of the German Wikimedia and he has said that the WMDE would sponsor us a server. The details and condition:
• We (respectively one of us) rent the server and we (the person) send the bill to the WMDE and then they repays the costs
• The WMDE gives for first time max. 50 €/month
• The server hosts only projects, software, etc. which are for the Wikimedia community
• We must send every three month a report which include:
o Current projects
o How the community accepts the projects
o Our ideas for the next three months (which extensions, software, etc. should be develop, which software should test, etc.)
If all is OK, we need one who rents the server and we must create a first report of our ideas for the next three months.
Daniel of the WMDE is in the mailing list, too. We can ask him if there are some questions.
Viele Grüße
Jan Luca

Hi all,
Danese Cooper, the "open source diva", and Wikimedia's very own Chief
Technology Officer, will be our guest at office hours on Wednesday, 22
September at 23:00UTC (16:00 Pacific, 19:00 Eastern, 01:00 Thursday
CET). This is a great opportunity to spend time with Danese and talk
about her exciting plans for the future of Wikimedia's technological
infrastructure.
You can access the chat by going to https://webchat.freenode.net/ and
filling in a username and the channel name (#wikimedia-office). You
may be prompted to click through a security warning. It's fine.
Another option is http://chat.wikizine.org.
As always, the chat will be logged and put on meta for those who are
unable to join.
Look forward to seeing you there!
Philippe

I've seen discussion of turning on the Widgets extension on the
wikiversity list recently; has this been discussed on wikitech?
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Widgets
I was just talking to a wolframalpha dev who wanted to know if their
widget would be useful for math projects -- while they could write a
standalone extension, they've already written a MW widget.
