[Foundation-l] Please REJECT the latin wikinews project. inmediatly

The policy applies to new projects only. It is not applied
retroactively to projects that were started before the policy was

Otherwise, the Latin, Gothic, Pali, Old Church Slavonic, Classical
Chinese, and probably other Wikipedias would be closed.
