Hi Nina and everyone else. :) I'll take this as an opportunity to inform you
all on the status of WLM in Norway. I have benefited from advice from both
Lodewijk and Maarten.

First of all - I am not organising this on my own in Norway. I am on the
board of Wikimedia Norway, and the board appointed me to lead the work with
WLM in Norway. But the whole board of Wikimedia Norway is involved in the
work. H@r@ld have agreed to work together with me on processing the dump
into lists. But most importantly we need the dumps with the proper licence.
That have been our main target lately, and I think we will have a final
decision during the coming week.

Fortidsminneforeningen (The Society for Preservation of Norwegian Ancient
Monuments) have agreed to be a partner with WMNO for WLM in Norway. We have
contacted sponsors.

I am still confident that we can make it to a good WLM in Norway.

Regards,
Jørund Leknes
Board member wikimedia Norway
