Hey All,
In association with the United States Public Policy initiative, the Wikimedia foundation is hosting dinner and a meetup with Wikimedia foundation outreach staff, local participants and DC Wikimedians. They are offering dinner at 6:30 for up to 15 local Wikimedians on a first come first serve basis and a 8:30 Meetup and after dinner discussion on August 11. I know that is very soon, but I hope many of you can make it. More information and sign up at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/DC_11
In other news, the Smithsonian Collaboration has kicked off with great success, we are planning a workshop on August 19th and will soon start scheduling a second workshop. Also, Boston and New York area Wikipedians have begun communication with Smithsonian organizations in both regions, for collaboration there as well. If you are interested in helping, sign up at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:GLAM/SI.
Thanks much,

I am assuming Guest #16 and beyond are allowed to attend, as long as they pay for themselves?

Allowed to come for the Meetup but I'm not sure if they will have room for dinner. I will certainly ask and find out. Annie said that the number was based on their budget. I will ask as the group fills up, for right now though lets worry about getting our 15!
