I would like to say a huge thank-you to the Taipei team and organizers for Wikimania 2007, which ended a few days ago. It was a fabulous conference and you were incredible hosts. The venue and organization were all wonderful, and the extra touches -- the banners leading to the venue, the Wikiball, the free coffee, the t-shirts and tote bags for attendees, and much more -- made it great. The conference was exciting and a pleasure to attend.

A special thanks to Theodoranian, the lead organizer; TzuChiang Liou, the program manager; Daucter, Dann, Alice and all the registration staff; Frances and KJ; James, the onsite volunteer coordinator, the rest of the Taipei team, and the literally dozens of local volunteers who came to help out. Thank you for your hospitality and for making the first Wikimania in Asia a success. Thanks also to all the international volunteers who helped with different aspects -- especially members of the program committee, the scholarships committee, and the international sponsorships team. It was great to work with all of you.

best,
phoebe
