You are correct. We agreed that the adress would be wikimediafoundation, 
in particular for domain names issues. I must remember we have to 
contact the current owner. Would you perhaps do it Mav ? Tell us if you 
do or do not please.

I suppose that once the www.wikimedia.org will be a little bit more 
organised and MOSTLY when it will support the fundraising page, we will 
remove the current site at wikimediafoundation.org and move the other one.

Till then, we'll have to have two sites in order to support the 
fundraising page :-)

I did not remembered that subtility. Well, if protecting ALL pages 
requiring HTML is required for security, we could protect all of them I 
guess.

Which pages do you think will require HTML ?
