Hello everyone! After much delay, I am pleased to announce that Wikimania 2012, the eighth annual Wikimedia conference, has opened registration! Wikimania 2012 will be held in Washington, D.C., the capital city of the United States. We will announce the specific venue shortly. To register, please read <http://wikimania2012.wikimedia.org/wiki/Registration> and then proceed to the linked registration form. Until April 23, the registration fee is $55; Wikimedia students and volunteers can register at the discounted $35 rate. This does not cover accommodations, which will be handled by a separate process. If you need financial aid to attend, consider applying for a scholarship: <http://wikimania2012.wikimedia.org/wiki/Scholarships>. Wikimania is made possible by the excellent presentations delivered by enthusiastic Wikimedia volunteers. If you are interested in presenting at Wikimania, please read our Call for Participation: <http://wikimania2012.wikimedia.org/wiki/Submissions>.
