Hi Ivan,
Thanks for this announcement.
One of the wishes of many of the participants in this year's Wikimedia Conference was to meet up with other Wikimedians from similar regional, linguistic, or cultural heritages. I thought that I heard that similar meetups are planned for Wikimania in Mexico. Are they listed on a separate page? At the Wikimedia Conference these were categorized as social events, although I think that most of the groups discussed business in addition to socializing.
Thanks, Pine
Hi Pine,
did you that they're listed in the programme? ( https://wikimania2015.wikimedia.org/wiki/Programme) Friday and Saturday evening there are several meet-ups (WikiFranca, WMCEE, Wikiarabia, etc.) listed.
Best Cornelius

Ivan, Pine, & all,
Yes, I would like to organize a CAN/US meetup. I see that we have 21 on the Attendees page who are Definitely attending:
6 from Canada 2 from the UK/US 13 from the US
I see that the times scheduled for Meetups thus far are at 17:30 on Friday & 18:00 on Saturday. I think it would be good to schedule CAN/US meetups in both slots, because I can see from the user pages that some may be also want to attend the Education Meetup (F), the Wiki Loves Meetup (F), the Photowikimeetup (F & S), & the LGBT Meetup (S). *Les francophiles (FR-N) peuvent également souhaiter assister à la WikiFranca Meetup.* Having two CAN/US meetups would allow some to attend those meetups & a CAN/US one as well. Although I do not know how Sage will choose between the Education Meetup, a Photowikimeetup, & a CAN/US meetup!
For consistency's sake, could we meet in the same slot (Meetup V?) & room both evenings?
Yours, Peaceray

Can you please update the events if food is provided or if it's not provided and people should go out afterwards? Otherwise you might hit a bit of a cultural expectations gap: If you organize something between 6 and 8 PM some people will expect you to have food. Better to be very clear and manage those expectations :-)
Looking forward to it!
