Yes. I suggest to tell all the teams
representatives the final
decission before it will be officially announced. Maybe it is even
more important for those two who won't be happy to have Wikimania in
2010, as there might be plenty of unnecesary frustration after being
informed about it via press.
That would impressive work by the press to hear about the result and
contact the local team/chapter before they were able to check their
email. I agree, it wouldn't be a very nice way to find out if it did
happen, though.

Well, I know that when the Brisbane bid last time around was struck
without first being informed, I received plenty of distressed mobile
calls from our bidding partners before I happened to log on and check my
email. Needless to say, I was pretty annoyed at being put on the spot
by the bid committee like that.
Cheers,
