[Foundation-l] Re: wikibreak

[Anthere]

I guess that a wikibreak is just not an option, unless I cut my personal 
phone cord and DSL cord to the computer. I will consequently only try to 
  strictly respect 6-7 hours of sleep everyday. If any of you meet me 
after midnight on irc, I am fair game.

I will have to present Wikipedia in april in Stockholm and Helsinky, so 
will focus in the next few days to prepare something in english. I hope 
I can meet some wikipedians in Helsinky, but am not sure I will have the 
time to do so for Stockholm.

On a similar note, I will probably spend a few days in Agadir early may. 
Are they some wikipedians from over there ?

Otherwise, I am trying to improve the foundation current event with 
Britty, so that the site becomes more informative. See 
http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/User:Anthere/test for now.

I was thinking to include in the main page a collection of news, but 
rather than to have it just a line, make it more a good solid paragraph, 
and have it signed by its main author. With links to other sources of 
information eventually. Typical information could be
* informing on the recent break down of servers
* informing on a hosting decision
* information on a chapter creation
* informing on a major meeting

etc...

All things in relation to the Foundation of course. Till now, current 
events have not been followed up much on the site, so I would like that 
this is now more supported, to give more life to the site. My two 
suggestions are 1) information a bit more sustantial than just one line 
and 2) authorship mentionned. This is meant to decrease the risk of 
announcement thought of being the board while they are not. In this 
case, most authors would be people from the french, german, and wmf 
board, plus official representatives such as Mav, plus techs report such 
as from James day or Brion or Kate or....
