Dear All
maybe I overlooked something but I miss some specific informations about the WikiIndaba in Accra.
1. I see from the page https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiIndaba_conference_2017
that applications have opened on 13 Nov, open until 30 Nov.
QUESTION: who has to apply for what? by doing what?
2. Submissions to be sent Nov 13 - Dec 15
QUESTION: what topics? Form? what kind of slots? Where to fit into which programme?
3. Participants to be announced on Dec 20
REMARK: Is that not a bit late? I have to apply for visum and I do not expect embassies to do much work in second half of December into beginning of January.
Apperciate any hint for infos I overlooked. In my case participation depends on travel assistance. When can I know about that?
Cheers Ingo-kipala
