If you have additional comments or questions please feel free to leave a message on the
Board noticeboard:

Alternatively, if you are lucky enough to be able to attend Wikimania it is good to know
that we are attending as well. Please come and find us if you have something that you
think the board should be aware of. At the same time you will probably meet a lot more
people at Wikimania who have a very practical approach in making “cool projects reality”,
so I would encourage you to seek out other attendees to see if you can make great things
happen!
Finally I would like to draw your attention to the annual Board Q&A which takes place
at Wikimania on the 8th of August at 15:00. Please feel free to leave questions at:
https://wikimania2014.wikimedia.org/wiki/Questions_for_the_Q%26A_with_Wikim…
but we are also just going to answer questions from the audience. I commit that all
written questions left on the above page will be answered in some online way if we do not
get to them during the Q&A. This might take a few weeks but it will happen.
