Przykuta is absolutely right. Big milestones do not have much effects on 
very large languages right now, but they are
a rare opportunity for other languages with still little media attention.

I would also remind that we should (could) very possibly have a new 
fundraising drive soon... and it might be a good idea
to reflect in which order to do the three events
* fundraising
* 2M
* wikimania
