Angela and Jimbo at the BBC

During November 2004, Angela and Jimmy worked for the BBC in London for two weeks. Everyone had a fine time, and it seemed to go over well, as they have been invited to come back at some unspecified date in the future. Some of the BBC employees came to the London assignation held during those weeks. Angela describes their experience elsewhere in the newsletter (see Endnotes, pg. 8).

Lost Oasis and hosting

Wikimedia has standing offers of free hosting from a webhost in France, Lost Oasis where three new squids have recently been set up.
There were other offers of free hosting, as well, particularly while making contingency plans for the first Florida hurricane, in late August.

Mandrakesoft DVD

Much to our disappointment, the release by Mandrakesoft of a bilingual snapshot of the French and English Wikipedia, with an upcoming version of Mandrake Linux, has been delayed.

The intensive work to tag images and lists in preparation for these publications, long overdue, has provided quality improvement to the Wikipedia projects involved. Please help this effort at [1].
