The first round of submission acceptances was sent out on Sunday night. Acceptees have 3 days to reply with confirmation, or they are considered withdrawn, and second choice acceptances go out to replace them. This process continues until the entire programme is confirmed.
If you haven't received an acceptance do not despair just yet, there may be quite a few second choices as many submissions were dependent on scholarships. It's hard to say at this stage how many will withdraw.
As confirmations come in, they are added to the programme page on the wiki: https://wikimania2014.wikimedia.org/wiki/Programme
If you have any questions about the programme don't hesitate to ask me. However, I won't be making any alterations until after the programme is confirmed.
Average first choice score was something like 8.93/10, I think we have an excellent programme to look forward to!
