Dear Wikimaniacs & Non-Wikimaniancs
Learning from our experiences from previous Wikimanias & Wikimedia conferences we think that we shall provided a good online map, [1] to help you to familiarized yourself before you get to Hong Kong.
We actually started this map during our bidding process, and we have made some updates recently, deleted some not related and out-of-date info
Also considering the accommodations will probably be really scattered around HK, so we would also like to pin out the places where WM entities already reserved for their members or a place we know a number of Wikipedians will stay in, in order to make you easier to locate each other and find a place to meet. [2]
A recent addition on the map is about food, the local team's choice. These are actually some local restaurants even the local team will visit regularly and they are not so expensive and with some stories behind so do read the description on the map.
[1] http://goo.gl/maps/SfAog [2] in case you had booked a hotel/place to stay for an entity or a group of Wikipedians, please let us know by sending e-mail to wikimania-hq@wikimeida.hk, so we can pin your place on the map.
We may later also add some local team's choice on Bar & drinking, if we can find a consensus on this as well.
Thank you for you kind attentions
