Cena iberoamericana hoy viernes noche
by Galileo Vidoni 05 Aug '11

05 Aug '11

// disclaimer for wikimania-l: this is about an Ibero-American dinner we're planning for today // Estimados: Los muchachos de Wikimedia Argentina+Chile pensamos que hoy, aprovechando que tenemos libre después de la conferencia, puede ser un buen día para armar una cena iberoamericana e irnos a comer juntos todos los de Iberocoop y/o hablantes de portugués, español o portuñol. Como sabrán, hoy comienza el Shabbat, por lo que encontrar dónde comer no va a ser tarea fácil. Nos recomendaron ir a cenar comida tradicional al barrio árabe de Haifa, Wadi Nisnas, que lógicamente va a estar abierto. Nosotros al término de la conferencia tenemos ganas de ir a visitar los jardines Baha'i --posiblemente en taxi, porque ya estaremos en Shabbat--. Quienes quieran, están más que invitados a venir con nosotros. Luego nos podríamos encontrar a las 20 en la puerta de Wikimanía para ir a comer todos juntos. ¿Qué les parece? En este mapa pueden verse la ubicación de la sede de Wikimanía, los jardines Baha'i y Wadi Nisnas: http://cor.to/WM11 Saludos, galio

Presentation format / software / OS?
by vassia atanassova 02 Aug '11

02 Aug '11

Hello, I'm doing the final strokes of my presentation and I have a question. What will be the operation system and the software in use for viewing the presentations? I need to know because I have one custom (handwriting) font in one of my presentations, which I either need to install first, or turn the respective textboxes into images, or convert the whole presentation to PDF (which will be more difficult to me in another aspect)... So, any info available about this? Vassia / Spiritia
