Dear Wikimaniacs,
Hello again from the Wikimania 2013 Hong Kong local team! We are now
calling for a programme committee.
The programme committee is an important and diverse group of volunteers
who help to deliver the conference. The main duties of the programme
committee prior to Wikimania 2013 are to review conference submissions, and
work with the local team to draw up the conference schedule. During
Wikimania, the programme committee will assist the local team to deliver
the programme.
We are looking for Wikimedians from any part of the world, who are fluent
in written and spoken English, keen to attend and contribute to Wikimania
2013, and happy to volunteer a bit of time to review submissions in early
2013, to join the programme committee. Past experience in Wikimania,
conference production, and proficiency in the Chinese language are a plus
but not essential. While we hope that programme committee members will
enjoy Wikimania 2013 by giving significant input to it, the local team
cannot guarantee financial support for programme committee members' travel
expenses.
If you are interested in serving on the programme committee, please email
the local team at wikimania(a)wikimedia.hk . Please don't hesitate to ask
us if you have any queries.
While I still have your attention: comments and suggestions about the
Wikimania 2013 call for participation[1] and submission template[2] are
also welcome!
With best wishes,
Deryck Chan
