How's your Spanish?
none existent, i'm afraid.
I might try the Spanish Wikipedia list:
You could always try
one of the spanish-speaking chapters for help
translating or more info
too. If all else fails try sending a message to Foundation-l, at
https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l; but it's
often hard to track down information about people from that time
period as many folks have moved on, and f-l can be pretty
english-centric.
this particular fellow certainly did move on!
Also I assume you've seen
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Transwiki:Wikimania05/Paper-AS1 ? Juan
David's username is
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Zuirdj; he's
still active and I think Ascander is too. That might be a good place
to start.
yes, i am familiar with that paper, and as far as i can tell, all the
other "traces" of this event. i was looking for some more info about
edgar, but have not been able to find a current email address. the
lack of spanish language doesn't help in this regard!
approaching Juan and Ascander is a good idea, and might be all i need.
thanks a lot Phoebe,
