[Foundation-l] Omidyar Network Commits $2 Million Grant to Wikimedia Foundation

[Ziko van Dijk]

That evil man gets into the Advisory Board without having made one

Great achievement of our folks, congratulations!

By the way, the Wikimania speeches, will they be to see on the internet?

Kind regards
ZIko
