As I spend my last few hours here at Wikimania 2015, I want to extend my thanks to all of the leaders and volunteers who have made this Wikimania a truly memorable event. It is a bit funny that, despite being in the middle of what might be called a very "corporate" environment, I have felt such camaraderie and friendship amongst our huge,worldwide community. Our organizers set the stage for us to make it such an excellent weekend together.
So many things went right this weekend. The food was good, the sessions were good, the company was excellent, and the venue was very accommodating. Yes, there were a few problems - six months from now, they will be remembered as funny stories.
Thank you again, to all of you.

+1,000,000. This has been a lovely Wikimania. (And more still to come today!)
Favorite things so far: great talks, great lunchtime conversations (and food!), constant coffee availability, learning about groups at their booths, and seeing old friends in the elevators :)

I completely agree with Risker and others -- what a wonderful conference it has been and congrats and thanks to Ivan Martinez and the entire crew of WM Mexico on executing an amazing event. Thanks from all of us!

No puedo hacer más que sumarme a las felicitaciones y a los agradecimientos a nuestros organizadores. Tengo la experiencia de organizar una Wikimanía y es algo tan complejo en la que tantas cosas pueden salir mal que nunca está de más agradeder el esfuerzo (¡y los excelentes resultados!) a nuestros compañeros mexicanos. El café está siempre disponible, la comida es muy buena (y la comemos sentados en mesas, algo que no ha pasado tantas veces en el pasado) las charlas son interesantes y la sede es muy cómoda.
Un abrazo grande, amigos, estamos muy orgullosos de ustedes.

Everything Risker said. Thank you to all the organizers.
I loved the food, and as a vegetarian, felt well-accomodated!

I too want to give my personal cheers to the organising team and especially the volunteers. They did a wonderful job, and they should be given a time to get to the podium and receive their deserved applause. :)
I hope that the next year we Italians will be able to provide an equivalent result -- it will be difficult, but we'll try very hard. :)

Further to my last email, I would add DO have mariachis at every future Wikimania. :)
(And does anyone know where I can find their tailors? I could do with those trousers)
More seriously - great job guys :) On 19 Jul 2015 15:56, "N C Hasive" nhasive@wikimedia.org.bd wrote:
