We discussed that last year and someone came up with a
sensible remark:
If you are travelling during Ramadan, you are excempted from the fast.
It should also be noted that Wikimania 2009 also took place during
Ramadan, and Wikimania 2012 will miss it by only a few days.
There's also already a page on wikimania2011wiki directed at the
Muslim Ramadan-observing Wikimaniacs that has been up for almost an
entire year (August 2010!).

Having Wikimania during Ramadan isn't a showstopper... they can still
partake in all of the normal Wikimania activities, and this year's
Wikimania has already made plans to support them.
