I haven't clicked the link, and I don't remember anything called Insight.
But if it's a very long interview with a man named Mark Oppenheim then yeah,
it's very old. Mark is a recruiter we use, who interviewed me a year or so
ago for a series he does on non-profit management.

So it's probably that one :-)

Actually, some of the facts aren't outdated: Sue talked about our Wikipedia for 
Schools project -- which is a very recent project.

According to YouTube, the video was uploaded on December 2010!

with a popular intro song:

I would suggest that we need one that is *completely different*.
Either that or ear plugs. At least RMS is unlikely to be singing it
for us.

We need a Free Knowledge Song, similar to the Free Software Song[1][2]. It
is cool to sing it in these events.

[Foundation-l] Wikipedia 10 - press release

2011-01-10 Thread Strainu
Hi,

I suppose there is (or will be) a press release prepared for the 15th,
marking Wikipedia's tenth anniversary. I was wondering if the
community could get the text a little earlier, so we can translate it?
I'm sure there will be some articles on the subject in every country
and it would be good to have a localized version sent to press
organizations.

Thanks,
  Strainu
