Hi Mardetanha,

There were essentially two things that happened during the meeting:

*We will revive the mailing list
*We will create a page on Meta where we will list contacts for each country.

Regards,

Josh

Hi guys,

I know this list is low-traffic, but I hope to get some discussion jumpstarted to get Wikimedia Asia moving again.

Anyway, I hope that in the course of the next year (or two), we can get the following started:

• A Wikimedia Asia Charter similar to the statement of principles of the Wikimedia Brasil un-chapter
• A Wikimedia Asia "Exchange Fund" which would fund the "exchange" of Asian Wikimedians within communities.  So, for example, a Hong Kong Wikipedian can draw money against the fund to travel, let's say, to India, in order to meet Indian Wikipedians.
• A continent-wide project, like an Asian version of Wiki Loves Monuments

The Asian Wikimedia lunch during Wikimania 2011 was very productive, and hopefully we can get Wikimedia Asia moving again, with or without WMF funding.

Regards,

Josh
