Dear Wikimaniacs,
Alexandria was a blast, and over much too fast. I'm still processing the
photos I took (my camera was imediately snagged by my friend Julia who is
off in Thailand this week, and I forgot to offload my SD card), but I hope
to share the images from the children's library, which was fabulous. And
the last night of revelry... Thanks to everyone who helped pull off such a
delightful event! For those who couldn't make it this year, I think what I
missed most was the lack of Calvinball -- but the beach and the artefact
museum hidden in the basement of the venue more than made up for it.
I was particularly cheered by the interest and participation from local
students and hackers, and need to finish learning Arabic so that I can
follow up on ar:wp . Is there an Arabic-language overview of the
conference and related press that I can point people to? And do we have a
shared delicious tagset?
Regards to new friends and old -- say hello on Skype if you see me -- and I
hope we may meet again soon, one way or another;
SJ
