I was talkiing to someone today, describing WMF as an 800lb gorilla
that tries very hard not to have people notice its muscles ...

Our power is something to save for special occasions. This is,IMO,
just the sort of thing it's for. I would hope we don't have to use it
very soon again. But if this sort of thing comes up again, it would be
appropriate.

I would suggest Wikimedia chapters and fans reblog it and possibly do
press releases. Worldwide publicity is appropriate for this - the US
keeps setting the terms of copyright of late.
