Yes, very much so! Either an open house or a workshop for people who
want to get involved somehow - as curators or distributors - would
also be handy. Many chapters who have reps at wikimania seem to be
considering some kind of offline work at a strategy level.

Hello offliners!
Are there people who will be at Wikimania who would be interested in meeting
up to discuss Offline strategy? It appears there are perhaps just three of
us on the offline project pages[1]. If there is a bigger group, it would be
great to set aside some time during the Hackathon to talk more specifically
about what progress we would like to see in Offline WIkipedia going into the
future.
Otherwise, it appears Manuel's submission got selected, and we have some
time during Wikimania itself[2]! Since this session is only an hour, though,
it seems like all the time will be spent reporting what the different
activities going on around the world are - which is much needed, but a
slightly different purpose.
What do people think? Will anyone be around?
