Ha! I would like to immediately challenge community members to come up with some way to reuse wikimedia content in one of the media listed by geni, above... (a knitted article, authors embroidered on the back? An engraved-tankard with PD picture? A spoken-wikipedia 45?). Best example brought to Wikimania this summer will win a prize, with categories: most creative, best craftsmanship, best use of/compliance with the GFDL, etc. If a contributor sues you over content reuse, I'll help pay the legal fees, any items produced/sold commercially excepted. -- phoebe _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
