Hi,
as mentioned in last week's announcement of the September 2011 Wikimedia Foundation report, this time we published a separate "Highlights" summary, combining excerpts from the general report and the engineering report. It's an experiment, a format which might be useful for those who might find the full reports long to read, and it facilitates translations.
Several translations are now available (help is welcome in spreading them):

Thanks to all translators! Translations can still be added at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_Highlights,_September_2...
As said above, this is an experiment, so it would be nice to hear how useful the result is to people, and what could be improved.
I would also like to take the occasion to draw attention to "Wikimedia:Woche", an new weekly newsletter run by the German Wikimedia chapter, summarizing news from the whole movement in German language (http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/vereinde-l/2011-September/005121.html ). To my knowledge it is the first initiative of its kind by a chapter (of course there are already volunteer-run publications such as the Signpost, Wikizine and Kurier).
