Thanks a lot Floor!
Unfortunately I will not make the meetup either (unless it lasts until well after 7:30 pm,
which is my arrival time at the airport...) With such an interesting list of attendants, I
will definitely try to find you guys soon as I arrive at the hotel, hopefully the
discussion will be so engaging that it will last until I get there (and perhaps continue
with drinks afterwards:)
In any case, looking forward to meeting you in person soon:)

Pre-Conference is now open!
Dear Mina,
Thank you for replying, and I am also sorry to hear that you won't be able to be
there for the pre-conference. Thank you for asking about notes. We have not yet
established a system for note-taking and sharing afterwards, so I appreciate you reminding
me. Some of the sessions are more focused on skill building (editing basics, for
instance), and some will be more about sharing experiences. In short, not all will be
equally well suited for note taking, but we will do our very best to be inclusive, even to
those who are not there. At the very least, presentations used during the pre-conference
will be uploaded to Commons so that others will be able to use them as well.
One event you may be able to be there for (depending on your time of arrival), will be
the Education meetup. This will be a more informal get-together to meet others with
experience and/or interest in education.
Thanks,
Floor Koudijs

I SO regret that I will not be able to make it to the pre-conference ( I will be
arriving in Mexico on the evening of the 17th due to professional obligations in the US).
However I am looking forward to meeting all the educators and other Wikimedians who will
be attending at the main conference
(question: will there be a report from the pre-conference available during main
Wikimania? This would be helpful for those not able to attend the pre - such as myself -
so that we could seek out the right people to discuss the findings and perhaps establish
collaboration...)
Best from Greece:)

Calling educators, education policymakers, instructional technologists, students,
librarians, and anyone interested in the intersections between Wikimedia projects and
education: You're invited to join the Wikimania Education Pre-Conference, which will
take place on July 15 and 16 of 2015 in the Hilton Hotel Reforma, Mexico City, Mexico.
The Education Pre-conference is an event held prior to Wikimania, the largest
annual gathering in the wiki world. It provides a space to share experiences, take part in
workshops and learn about tools and resources to start using Wikipedia and other Wikimedia
projects as a pedagogical tool in an academic setting.
We would love to hear from you about how Wikipedia can contribute to education.
Whether you are a beginner to the Wikimedia world or whether you already use Wikipedia in
the classroom, we would love to have you participate.
Attendance is free, but you need to register here because space is limited.
We hope to see you all in Mexico!
On behalf of the organizing committee,
[and apologies for cross-posting]
