Hey Abbas,
Would like to join the WikiSat at iHub. But then, I really get what the WikiSats are up
to? Please brief me on this.
Regards.
Cliff.

Seems like there's preference for people to hold WikiSat at the convenience of their
campuses. That's OK -- people are free to do do it wherever they find it most
convenient.
Most of the students are on recess now in my university, so for the next couple of months
I'll be popping in and out of iHub to edit. I think Grace might also accompany me. So
for those who might not be able to go to campus for one reason or another, do ping me and
we'll liaise our own WikiSaturday.
Regards,
Abbas.

offcourse that does not rule out occassional meetups of the BOARDs

Yah, awesome idea Oscar.
In my opinion, the best way to approach this would be through campus clubs, that way we
won't have to worry about creating awareness and dealing with campus administration.
This should be workable.
Alex.

i think Oscar's idea is brilliant! That way we do
not have to hold the
meetings on saturday mornings they can even be held on
weekdays maybe over
lunch hour or in the evenings.
