I just joined the list on reading the
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_UK page. I am
very interested in the promotion of open-source
knowledge, and educational use within the UK. The
prospect of a UK chapter is very exciting.
I am the owner of
http://wikipedia.org.uk, mentioned
on the page. I registered it to avoid unfriendly
squatting on the address and would be willing to
assign it to wikimedia-uk at whatever point it becomes
a legally recognised educational charity, and redirect
it as required up to that point.
