Dear all,
(I am really happy to send a message on a completely new topic :) )
The Wikimania jury has selected Haifa, Israel as the location for Wikimania 2011. The Haifa team presented a compelling, detailed bid[1] that the Wikimania jurors were very impressed by. As usual, all of the Wikimania bids had good points, and it was a very difficult decision. Detailed feedback will be sent to all bids. Public discussion of the bids and the Wikimania process is also welcome, and we know the winning team will appreciate the community's support and help in making a great Wikimania.
We also apologize for the lateness of this announcement. We invested a lot of time in careful consideration of all points. I am happy to answer questions about the process.
Congratulations to the Haifa team and many thanks to all of the bidders for working so hard. I personally encourage all bidders to use the energy that has been put into these bids by hosting smaller regional events, and considering another bid for Wikimania in the future.

Congratulations to the Haifa team! I think this is an excellent choice and I look forward to Wikimania 2011.
But until then, see you in Gdańsk :)
Regards, CoE
Congratulation, Haifa team!
It was both tough and fulfilling to have more than one great bid to choose from, and I have to tell the other bidding teams not to be down; consider you have now more experience for the next time.
I'd like to thank Phoebe for putting up with us, and all the advisors and moderators.
Mazel tov!
Mariano Cecowski.

Congratulations to the Haifa team and everyone involved with the successful bid. Now comes the hard part.
Thanks for hard work are also due to the Toronto, Montreal, and New York teams. I hope that one of these cities will get to host a Wikimania in an upcoming year.

Congratulations to the Haifa team! And congratulations as well to the New York, Montreal, and Toronto bid teams -- it takes tremendous effort to put together a compelling bid.
I hope that you can all take advantage of the interest you have built over the course of the bids to organize other community and social and academic events.

Congratulations for Haifa team and all those who involved. Also thank you for hard works to jury team, it should have been a tough work to pick up only one city among those competitive candidates.
Thrilled to see you there, if possible, but before that, see you guys in Gdansk!
