Mind you, I have already heard from some folk, but would certainly like to hear from more. Please email me privately. Here are some guidelines: * Please make sure you will have some time to be involved in the selection process, especially between January 1 and the first week of March. * People who have attended Wikimania or who have greatly contributed to a strong bid, or who have run other Wikimedia events; and who are otherwise involved in the Wikimedia movement are preferred. * There will be a representative of the board, the advisory board, and the WMF staff on the jury. The other members should be an even mix of chapter and non-chapter people; and the jury as a whole should be geographically diverse and have a fair representation of both genders. * If you are going to be contributing in a large part to a bid for 2011, you are not advised to put your name forth for conflict of interest reasons. I am posting this to Wikimania-l and Wikimania-planning-l right now, but do plan on cross-posting to Foundation-l later on. Also, please don't fret if I don't respond to you right away; I'm going on vacation for the American Thanksgiving holiday week and will be only marginally available. - -- Cary Bass Volunteer Coordinator, Wikimedia Foundation Support Free Knowledge: http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Donate
