Today I got the confirmation that my lecture proposal was accepted.
So I think we all will get an information soon

Betreff: [Wikimania-l] Re: Wikimania 2023 update
Hi Wikimania organisers,
We're halfway through June - how is the progress with deciding on submissions?
As a prospective self-funded attendee, I also wonder if the organisers have advice on the
following:
* Estimated registration fees for in-person attendance
* Accommodation - any bulk booking or discount codes for Wikimania attendees?

Hello everyone,
I’m writing with a general update from the Core Organizing Team
<https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2023:Organizers> .
Following our meeting this month in Singapore, where we worked on event strategy, planning
and early on-the-ground preparations, we would like to share a general timeline with you:
* By now, all scholarship applicants should have received communications regarding the
status of their scholarship application. If you applied but have not received a message,
you can email <mailto:wikimania-scholarships@wikimedia.org>
wikimania-scholarships(a)wikimedia.org. We encourage those who did not receive a scholarship
to register for and attend the virtual Wikimania. There also may be some affiliates still
offering scholarships, so check with your local affiliate.
* Registration for Wikimania will open in June. We will be communicating it broadly when
registration opens so you won’t miss it!
* The Programming Subcommittee
<https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2023:Program_Subcommittee> is hard at work
selecting sessions and building the program. Program applicants will hear during the month
of June about whether their session has been selected. We will aim to communicate about
this as close to the start of the month as possible. However, there is a lot of work still
to be done, so please avoid reaching out to inquire about the status of your application
until the end of the month as we are dealing with a large volume of inquiries at this
time.
* Most of you have likely seen that the conference will be held at the Suntec Convention
Centre
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suntec_Singapore_Convention_and_Exhibition_Centre> .
Our opening ceremony will be at Suntec, and our closing party at Gardens by the Bay
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gardens_by_the_Bay> . We will also be offering
outings and activities around Singapore on the 15th (Tuesday) and 20th August (Sunday) for
those interested. More information on that to come.
* We have updated the Wikimania Wiki
<https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2023:Wikimania> (
wikimania.org
<http://wikimania.org> ) to reflect these dates.
For all inquiries and suggestions, kindly write to us at wikimania(a)wikimedia.org
<mailto:wikimania@wikimedia.org> .
Kind regards,
Butch Bustria
