Payment in return
by Jon Harald Søby 15 Jan '11

15 Jan '11

Today I got an email from PayPal notifying me that the payment I made for Wikimania had been returned. It said something about it having to be manually confirmed, and that that had not happened, so I got the money in return. This is obviously not the way it is supposed to be, so I wonder what I should do about it? -- Jon Harald Søby http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Jon_Harald_S%C3%B8by

Sorry if this has been answered already, but could someone give a rough estimate of when we can expect the videos from the sessions in Gdansk? Sincerely, -Liam wittylama.com/blog Peace, love & metadata

09 Nov '10

Hi all, Following from my recent email, I would like to invite people to put themselves forward who are interested in serving on the Wikimania 2012 jury. Please find <http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania/Jury> which is a list of general requirements. However In short: * Please make sure you will have some time to be involved in the selection process, especially between January 1 and the first week of March. * People who have attended Wikimania or who have greatly contributed to a strong bid, or who have run other Wikimedia events; and who are otherwise involved in the Wikimedia movement are preferred. * There will be a representative of the board, the advisory board, and the WMF staff on the jury. The other members should be an even mix of chapter and non-chapter people; and the jury as a whole should be geographically diverse and have a fair representation of both genders. * If you are going to be contributing in a large part to a bid for 2012, you are not advised to put your name forth for conflict of interest reasons. If you wish to be involved in the Jury, please email me at josephseddon(a)gmail.com Many Thanks Joseph Seddon Wikimania 2012 Bidding Coordinator

Wikimania 2012 Bidding - Introduction
by Joseph Seddon 09 Nov '10

09 Nov '10

Dear all Just wanted to make a quick announcement. Following the departure of Cary I have volunteered to coordinate the Wikimania 2012 bidding. I personally only see this role as temporary thing since I would like to see the numerous discussions on a permanent wikimania advisory group come to fruition as quickly as possible. In terms of what my role description is, it will be similar to what Cary has done in previous year which is to form a jury, set the timeline for the bidding period, to ensure that the bidding process remains a smooth and efficient process and preferably run to schedule. I have already made adjustments to the bidding timeline and hopefully Ill have the jury formed within the next few weeks. Following this email, there will be a call to the community for people to put themselves forward to join the jury along with a timeline for the upcoming bidding period. If anyone has any questions feel free to drop me an email to: josephseddon{at}googlemail.com I look forward to seeing another round of bidding filled with fastastic high quality bids. Yours Joseph Seddon Wikimania 2012 Bidding Coordinator

Gdansk videos .. we were all deceived!
by Maysara Omar 31 Oct '10

They deceived us! They said videos of presentations and talks, etc. will be released, but they never did. And they don't even respond to our questions about them here. We don't want the "edited" and directed versions! Just release the thing as it was and it will be fine. But maybe you have deceived us! x-( :-) Maysara
