Editorial
This is the first issue of a revived Wikimedia UK newsletter, reporting on the actvities of the UK chapter, members and supporters, and on all matters of interest to them. You can leave general comments on the contents page, or send them to the editor (Charles Matthews, on editor@wikimedia.org.uk ).
It is intended to produce both this wiki version and a PDF version of each issue of Open Access. Our first PDF version has been a little delayed, but will be posted on this site as soon as Gremlinbusters have hosed it down.
Follow Wikimedia UK also on blog.wikimedia.org.uk , and for general discussion join the mailing list at lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l .
