For information, Yann was willing to have the french
association up before the end of november 2003, to
host fr.ouvaton.wikipedia.fr. The server would host
the french wikipedia only.

Yann, if you want to exercice a RightToFork, it is
your absolute right, and we do not have anything to
say about that. What is really important to us is the
diffusion of knowledge, and mirors can only be a help
to do so :-)
