[Wikimedia-l] New proposal for a wiki Project!

[Gerard Meijssen]

Hoi,
The one thing I am really interested in learning is how information about

Information about is likely to be in another language, consequently WHAT
language. Content could be in something like Wikisource / Wikibooks.
Thanks,
      Gerard
