The Wikinews project has now been officially launched in English and German: http://en.wikinews.org/ http://de.wikinews.org/ Similar to Wikipedia, Wikinews allows anyone to participate in the creation of news articles as long as they follow a strict neutrality policy. Original reporting is explicitly encouraged, bringing this project into the highly interesting realm of citizen media and p2p journalism. For background, see http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikinews http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikinews/Thinktank - and my brand-spanking new article "Wikinews and the Growing Wikimedia Empire", which also describes other recent developments: http://www.infoanarchy.org/story/2004/12/3/213547/371 As the lead instigator of the Wikinews project, I'll be happy to answer any questions you may have.
