[Foundation-l] Fundraising update

[Brad Patrick]

Hello:

Well, after some bumps we have the fundraiser off and running!  There 
was a bug in currency conversion reporting when we got started, but 
everything has been tested and verified, and now the thermometer is 
exactly right.  The good news is that the currency issue caused the 
thermometer to *underreport* what was donated in the first day of the 
fundraiser.  Our donation history is available on 
http://fundraising.wikimedia.org.

We also have our default site notice revised and in need of 
translation.  Please see 
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Translation_request/WMF/Fundraising_Sitenotice%28default%29/2006.  
We will go live with the new and improved sitenotice after we get some 
translations put together.

Stay tuned!
