I’ve noted the existence of a an entertaining and informative forum The Papa Ratzinger Forum – which is particularly valuable for the translations of foreign news and commentary.

I should have also noted the existence of a similar place, run by the Christopher Blosser – at the Cardinal Ratzinger/Pope Benedict Fan Club. Some of the same folks post at both spots.

From the former, I found this sweet picture, of the Pope with the Polish president’s family, including his 3-year old granddaughter:

And if you have time, check out this news video (it has to download, so be warned) of the photo session – when the Pope gently pulls the little girl, who’s wandering the room, to take her place in the shot. Cute!
