Thank you Austin, Cary and Phoebe for your answers and dedication.
Just to clear our minds a little (and that is what I meant by "generally"),
could you tell us, at least vaguely, which was the profile that the ones who
got sponsored fulfilled? ( Amount requested, PCI, degree of contribution to
WMF projects, other criteria)
I'm sorry if I may be pushing this issue, but as you can see, some of us are
are a bit upset about the outcome.
About future sponsorship. Well, I must admit I didn't do much to get the
wikimania more sponsors. As the upcoming wikimania is going to be held in my
continent, I'll try to get my university (which is the largest in
Latinamerica) to get involved, and I'll try to get in touch with some IBM
reps for the continent. I think I may be able to afford that travel by
myself, but count me in if you need volunteers for the scholarship
committee.
Thank you all.
