hi,<div><br></div><div>Thanks for bringing this to our attention. Can you share where you have spotted this? We're not planning to have a twitter account, just a hashtag - #wci11. This is also being used on <a href="http://identi.ca">identi.ca</a> by a few users and we encourage this.</div>
<div><br></div><div>We'd like to correct the error.</div><div><br></div><div>warm regards,</div><div>Pradeep Mohandas<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 10 September 2011 08:18, Nagarjuna G <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:nagarjun@gnowgi.org">nagarjun@gnowgi.org</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<br></i>Mediawiki as a media technology does not belong there. It is not the outcome and end that this group should be interested in, but also means of getting there. <br>
<br>I personally think we should encourage and use the free software alternatives like <a href="http://identi.ca" target="_blank">identi.ca</a>, diaspora so that the event takes an opportunity to promote these media which protects user's freedom. <br>
<br>By linking your account to other facebook or twitter followers to <a href="http://identi.ca" target="_blank">identi.ca</a> account you will help tell the world that microblogging can be done with free software as well and your event supports/sponsors <a href="http://identi.ca" target="_blank">identi.ca</a>. <br>
<br>I do hope the mediawiki conference supports free social media and uses this occasion to spread this message among the wikimedians.<br><font color="#888888"><font color="#888888"><br>--<br>GN<br><br>
