Dear all,
I wish to remind you all that registration for Wikimania 2011 in Haifa,
Israel (August 4-7, 2011, with a mini chapters conference and developer
meetings on August 2-3) has been open since the beginning of the year and is
still ongoing. The early registration period ends on May 31st!
Whoever already knows they will attend Wikimania, whether privately, in
formal function, or as a scholarship recipient, should please complete their
registration (see [1], [2]) as soon as possible, not only to enjoy the
discounted rates for registration and accommodation but also to guarantee
your room, as the availability of cheaper accommodation, and of hotels in
the proximity of the venue, is limited. Please note that anyone going to
attend the conference under any function (for example, WMF staff) must
complete the registration form.
Your early registration will also help us better prepare for the conference.
If you want to translate the registration form ([2]) into your own language,
this can easily be arranged - please contact me.
If you want to receive discount codes to allow groups of participants (for
example, employees of your chapter, or recipients of your chapter's
scholarship program) to register without paying for themselves, in return
for a bulk payment to cover all of them, please contact me.
Also, if you want to help with the nascent international program committee
which is going to sort out and review the ~150 submissions (!) we already
have, please contact me too :)
Should you have any other questions relating to the conference, we're always
at your service, see [4].
