Dear all,


{{WMF Blue Divider}}
In my country, as well as in many countries (though not all), today is the first day of the new year. First of all, as is traditional, let me present my <nowiki>[[edit:wishes]]</nowiki> to all of you. I hope you will be in good health, will meet many successes, and will have fun in what you are doing.


Second, I would like to share with you [[10 wishes for 2008|my wikimedia-related-stuff wish list]].

''Founded just three years ago as a way to avoid uploading the same image to 200 different wikis, Wikimedia Commons began as a central media repository, making life more convenient for Wikimedia editors. Since then it has grown rapidly into a multilingual community of photographers, illustrators, scanners, audio editors, translators, organisers and annotators.''
