Try and read up on as much of the reliable on-wiki stuff as you can,
and try and get in touch with people who will be talking about it at
Wikimania maybe? And mention Wikimania, where I believe it will be

Are you actually going to be in the studio or will it be via a sat
link? And is it just you or others as well? How long are you going to
get? And what colour is your tie! :-)
