- Program Evaluation - should be an online committee that organises

No change needed.

It sort of work like this right now. But I think WMF should take up more and follow-up on scholarship program. Visa should be a local thing.

No change needed. It is independent from WMF.
Scholarship committee should be just reviewing applicants. Following up the scholarship program should be handled by WMF (like a chapter).

- Technics - a global team of people which organise online but also need
to work locally a week prior the event ** I'd volunteer for that as I also wrote most of the technical specs on the Wikimania Team wiki
Would it be possible that WMF helps local team to host Wikimania registration/scholarship system?
