uh ... i never noticed this. it seems really that WMF is considering
blog.wikimedia.org as "their" personal blog. it even says "(This is a
guest post by Carol Ann O’Hare of the French Wikimedia chapter.)" e.g.
here:
http://blog.wikimedia.org/2013/05/10/wikimedia-france-research-award-winner/

while the domain http://www.wikimedia.org/ contents clearly states
"Wikimedia is a global movement whose mission is to bring free
educational content to the world."

i would have expected a "movement blog" behind this URL, appropriate
to the usage of the domain, but i am not sure if i am completely
misreading this?

rupert, wondering ...
