I was surprised that the French Wikinews was created even without a mention on 
the French mailing list (wikifr-l) and fr.wikipedia Pump ("Bistro").
I am interested by the idea of Wikinews, but I won't have time to participate 
in the near future. I think that the requirement of 5 editors who pledge to 
*participate* in Wikinews is quite good before launching a project.
It doesn't seem this was met for the French Wikinews now.
