Hello
My name is Rexford, a member of the Planning wikimedia Ghana team.
I wish to also use this platform to say thank you to James of Wikimedia DC
for the gift goodies. 12 Wikimania bags with other goodies got to our
shores on the 24th of this month.
We're glad and we hope to put them to good use in our planned
little outreaches
In all, on behalf of PWMGH, we say thank you

Bonjour,
Nous sommes un Consortium de trois Organisations Non Gouvernementales
(O.N.G), en collaboration avec l’État du Bénin. Notre Consortium initie aujourd'hui un grand projet moderne dans le système
éducatif au Bénin.
Le projet consiste à Construire et à Gérer dans
chaque collège ou école publique d'enseignement secondaire ou
universitaire une
Salle Informatique. Cette salle informatique est installée avec 50
postes ordinateurs et le Logiciel du FICHIER NATIONAL DES ÉPREUVES,
EXAMENS ET CONCOURS de chaque année; et est Connectée à l'internet.
Ce qui permettra aux
enseignants et apprenants de faire plus de recherches dans tous les
domaines d'éducation, d’être plus performants et compétents et assure le
développement dans tous les secteurs d'activités. Car qu'on le veuille
ou non l'informatique s'impose comme le meilleur outil de l'évolution et
du développement durable de tout pays et du monde entier.
Pour réussir la réalisation de ce projet et le démarrer à la rentrée
académique 2012-2013 au Bénin, nous sollicitons votre partenariat et appui financier.
Veuillez recevoir et répondre pour l'honneur et considération que nous réservons à vos actions et à travers le monde.
Cordialement.
Le Directeur Exécutif,
Monsieur Codjo G. SODJAHIN; Adresse: 021 BP: 31 Cotonou; Tél: +229 979 126 53

Dear Wikimaniacs,
Hello again from the Wikimania 2013 Hong Kong local team! We are now
calling for a programme committee.
The programme committee is an important and diverse group of volunteers who
help to deliver the conference. The main duties of the programme committee
prior to Wikimania 2013 are to review conference submissions, and work with
the local team to draw up the conference schedule. During Wikimania, the
programme committee will assist the local team to deliver the programme.
We are looking for Wikimedians from any part of the world, who are fluent
in written and spoken English, keen to attend and contribute to Wikimania
2013, and happy to volunteer a bit of time to review submissions in early
2013, to join the programme committee. Past experience in Wikimania,
conference production, and proficiency in the Chinese language are a plus
but not essential. While we hope that programme committee members will
enjoy Wikimania 2013 by giving significant input to it, the local team
cannot guarantee financial support for programme committee members' travel
expenses.
If you are interested in serving on the programme committee, please email
the local team at wikimania(a)wikimedia.hk . Please don't hesitate to ask us
if you have any queries.
While I still have your attention: comments and suggestions about the
Wikimania 2013 call for participation[1] and submission template[2] are
also welcome!
With best wishes,
Deryck Chan

Hey,
it seems not all videos have been uploaded yet to youtube, and the last one
was added a month ago. Do you know if the videos that are still missing
will still be coming, or is there some problem with those?
Thanks!
