I meant to send that privately because I haven't been
participating on this list. Luclikly it is fit for
public comsumption :)

You should annouce to WMF that your bid will be
withdrawn if not accepted by a certain date. If you
could get Toronto to agree to do this as a united
front it would be even better.
That is what I would do in your place.

Dear friends:
We are writting this email
in behalf of
Wikimedia Argentina, to tell you about our concern
because of the lack
of news about the jury decision and even about
when
this decision may
be taken.
This is not just a
personal
concern and is not
only caused by an understandable anxiety: we are
being requested from
potential sponsors and media and we are delaying
this meetings because
we don't know what to tell them. The worst thing
is
that we can't tell
them at least when are we going to know the
decision. The Director of
our proposed venue is pushing us to define if we
are
going to use it
or not, because they need to set the 2009 agenda.
And so on. We think
the Toronto team may have the same problems.
The last deadline finished
twelve days ago,
and since then we had no news. We don't want to
disturb nor to hurry
up the jury discussion, but it would be of great
help if the jury
could establish a final date. If this is done, at
least part of the
uncertainty will disappear.
Thanks,
Patricio
