There will be at least three[1] Esperanto Wikipedians at the 'Esperanto
che Interreto'[2] conference in Boston this coming April. If any
east-coaster English Wikipedians are interested, we can probably have a
joint Wikipedia event and cultural exchange. ;)
Meanwhile, Wikipedia Day 2003 is less than a month away (and Magnus
Manske Day not long after!) -- a west coast get-together for the
occasion might be entertaining.

Donations welcome!
