> Translatewiki.net mostly "does stuff" and as an organisation we are
> notoriously averse of all things administrative. We hate it. One thing we
> like to improve is reaching out regularly to you. We would love to inform
> you on a monthly basis of how our community is able to help real users of
> real software be more productive, more educated, and more able to get things
> done. If you care and have the skills to help us, please let us know. We can
> use your help.
>

>
>    - Support for Toolserver was added.
>    - Support for Pywikipedia was added.
>    - Support for Mifos was added.
>    - Support for iHRIS was added.
>    - StatusNet has undergone major changes and is preparing a 1.0 release.
>    - MediaWiki is preparing a 1.17 release.
>    - FreeCol has rudimentary support for plural forms.
>    - Over 100 Wikia extensions for MediaWiki are supported by now.
>    - In a few weeks we expect to offer support for Encyclopedia of Life.
>    - Within months, we hope to offer support for Europeana.

> If you are a developer of a promising Free and Open Source Software product

> get in touch with us!
> Operational news

> In the beginning of March we moved to a brand new server made available to
