Hi Everyone!
With the Annual Fundraiser starting in less then two weeks the fundraising team will be
having IRC
office hours this Friday November 5th at 22:00 UTC (15:00 PDT, 18:00 EDT 23:00 CET orhere
<http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?month=11&day=5&year=2010&hour=22&min=0&sec=0&p1=0>
for more timezones) in the #wikimedia-office channel of the Freenode IRC network.
If you are interested in what we have been doing recently I encourage you to take a look
at the Meta fundraising portal
athttp://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fundraising_2010 or join
us on IRC in the #wikimedia-fundraising channel at any time.
If you do not have an IRC client, there are two ways you can come chat using a web
browser: First, using the Wikizine chat gateway at
<http://chatwikizine.memebot.com/cgi-bin/cgiirc/irc.cgi>. Type a
nickname, select
irc.freenode.net from the top menu and #wikimedia-office from the
following menu, then login to join.
Or, you can access Freenode by going
tohttp://webchat.freenode.net/, typing in the
nickname of your choice and choosing #wikimedia-office as the channel. You may be prompted
to click through a security warning, which you can click to accept.
Please feel free to forward and translate this email to any list I may have missed and I
hope to see everyone there!
