Hi all,
Wikimania is in Nairobi next year, and as it happens, Kiwix is booming in Africa. The Open Foundation West Africa has put a lot of resources into building user communities, which was obvious at the recent Wiki Indaba in Johannesburg, where there was a hackathon channel https://meta.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiIndaba_conference_2024/Program#Hackathon for the second time.
So, what James is saying makes sense!
Regards,

We had an offline conference a number of years ago. A lot has changed since then. Wondering if folks think it would be useful having an offline day before or after Wikimania or Wiki Con North America etc?
By the way the sales page is up again at the Wikipedia store https://store.wikimedia.org/products/internet-in-a-box
We are also looking at expanding the sites of assembly. And discussing if we should add more options of machines, ie rasp pi 4 or 5
