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 principleshttp://br.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia:Statement_of_Principlesof 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

Monumentshttp://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2011

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
