Thank you Austin, Cary and Phoebe for your answers and dedication.<br><br>Just to clear our minds a little (and that is what I meant by &quot;generally&quot;), 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) <br>
<br>I&#39;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.<br><br>About future sponsorship. Well, I must admit I didn&#39;t do much to get the wikimania more sponsors. As the upcoming wikimania is going to be held in my continent, I&#39;ll try to get my university (which is the largest in Latinamerica) to get involved, and I&#39;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.<br>
<br>Thank you all.<br><br><br>Alberto Conrado<br>
