Besides local team members and the program committee members, I know
some friends also help a lot (it's not a complete list, of course):
* Sandy, Craig, Guillaume and Christophe help Frances to organize many
interviews, a superb press conference. I already collected over 40 local
media coverage, that's amazing!
* Sandy, Delphine and Christophe take care of many international
sponsorship, give us more resource and energy to prepare the event.
* Aphaia and Cary promote the event and make this well-known among
communities.
* Austin and Christophe help Tim and local technical staffs to make
streaming possible.
* Jon Phillips and Alain help Mike to coordinate the HDE event
* there are some local bloggers help us during this event.
* and more...
The success of this event depends on the efforts from all participants,
either it's from local or global, wikipedian or wikipedian-to-be.
Personally I think the best thing in this event is to know friends from
all over the world, and working with you is definitely my best
experience, you make this an unforgettable memory, thanks.

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
