Current announcements - May 2003 - March 2003
- A Low Saxon Wikipedia has been erected at http://za.wikipedia.com It should be moved to http://pd.wikipedia.com since that is the right place, but currently unavailable.
- A new database server for Wikipedia will be set up on Friday/Saturday, May 2/3, which should reduce general sluggishness and allow for nice things like search to work again. Expect downtime while things are reconfigured...
- Wikipedia meetups are planned for Monday, May 12, at 7pm. They take place in many cities around the world. You can sign up at http://wikipedia.meetup.com
