No fixed date for the Scarborough event just yet, but it will be sometime
in February/March.
There may be a follow-up event in November/December, depending on the
success of the first event.
If you're wondering what this is all about see:

It sounds great but when will the bombardment start?

On the subject of WWI (but off the original
topic, sorry): is anyone on
this list interested in working with a small group of undergraduate
students at the University of Hull's Scarborough Campus on a small
wikimedia-related project we're planning to do around the Scarborough
Bombardment, along the Scarborough Maritime Heritage Centre?
I recently mentioned this to Harry Mitchell and I'll be following up with
him on it as soon as the seasonal merriment is over, but I'm keen to see
whether anyone else would want to join us; particularly anyone who could
easily attend a Scarborough event sometime in springtime.
Cheers,
Toni

Could any local Wikimedians get to this event, at
Horsmonden, TN12, on
4 Jan, with a view to photographing/ scanning the objects presented?
Probably best to liaise with the organisers,of so.
