Hi Isla,
I am aware that Wiki Africa is licensed under CC-BY-SA. This means that
anyone can freely use the contents but does not exactly define the
"Ownership". In your earliest comment, you wrote "* But I no longer work
with them. If they want to continue, that is great."* which I interpreted
as If Africa Center want to continue with the program, that's great.
Since you admitted yourself that Africa Center might continue with the same
program/project, it's difficult to assumed they have no legal right on
"Wiki Africa".
Regards,
Isaac.

Hello Isaac
WikiAfrica is a movement that is intentionally licenced under CC-BY-SA.
Everything to do with WikiAfrica, whichever space a project its hosted in,
is under the CC-BY-SA license. All hosts understand that; especially
organization like the Africa Centre, etc. who have received funds to do
projects under this label. As we say on the page:
*WikiAfrica* is an international movement across the African continent
and beyond that encourages individuals and organisations to create, expand
and enhance online content on Wikipedia about Africa.
WikiAfrica is not owned by one organisation and it belongs to all people
and organisations contributing to its scope.
I think that is pretty clear. I am not sure where the confusion is.
warmest
Isla

Thank you, Isla.
My understanding of your comment is that "Wiki Africa" is an intellectual
property of Flo, Lopenza and you and Africa Center do not have any control
over it. Correct? Per the claim here, <http://www.africacentre.net/> do
you think Africa Center is mistaken? or they are in fact, correct (i.e it's
their program, they owns it?
Let me know if you wish to discuss off-list.
Regards,
Isaac

Is there any chance the website could use a WordPress theme instead of
this custom made one?
Something similar along the lines of what was used for the
wikilovesafrica website?

Hello
After a lot of time and effort, we are VERY pleased to announce the
launch for the
WikiAfrica.org <http://wikiafrica.org/> website.
www.wikiafrica.org
The website has been completely revamped in order to give due credit to
all the members of the moment - including sponsors, hosts and, of course,
to showcase the projects. Please feel free to look through the website and
suggest changes or where you feel more information could be added. At the
moment, the information is very sparse and is designed to lead people to
investigate the projects in more depth via their own websites, or to get
involved with the existing wikimedia chapters and affiliates.
We look forward to your feedback,
Isla and Florence
