[Foundation-l] Wikimedia Foundation website

[Anthere]

Hello,

The website has been refurbished in the past few
weeks. 

You may see it at
http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Home

If some people feel like improving the design, please
do (we can work on this on meta or on the foundation
site depending on those interested).

Note that the main page offers various places for
input, either from the board/officers or from editors
themselves. Amongst the latest additions, please see
the opinion of an editor on Le Louvres, the famous
french museum, hosting art such as La Joconde, and
which has recently taken the stance to forbid entirely
any picture taking. 
This is currently available in english, french and
german.
Here :
http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/It_is_forbidden_to_take_pictures_%21

The next steps are currently these ones : 

* Setting up a new complete board report (do not go
for now, it is still under work :-))
* We expect a complete financial report of the last
fiscal year within a month or so
* I invite you to work on
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/How_to_use_or_reuse_our_content
to put on the foundation site later

What I would love to is to set up a FAQ in the next
weeks. I only created the page for now
(http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/How_to_use_or_reuse_our_content)
and invite everyone to put what he thinks are the most
basic questions anyone not knowing *anything* about
the Foundation could find useful. I'll go around here
and there in village pumps to ask for help on this.
For now, just knowing which could be the top 15
questions on the organisation would be great.

Other than that, remember that you are welcome to
participate. If someone does an interview of an
important person... if someone wants to make a report
on Wikimania, or clarify a legal issue, or is ready to
write a general article on one of our projects, or the
wikireaders... please do not feel shy and contact us
:-)
