What name are we to use? Wikimedia Ghana? After selecting a name a domain
name choice will be easy.

Hello everyone,
Its a lovely morning on my part of the world. I'm sure many of you know
myself and other 3 ghanaians were at the first ever conference for
wikimedians across africa which was held in Johannesburg, called Wiki
Indaba. In short, it was a success.
One thing myself and the other attendees from Ghana learned from the
conference was the fact that, we need to be recognized as a User Group
first before we can move on to apply for chaptership from the WMF.
I have put together this page on Meta as a starting point.[1] By the end of
this week, an email will be pushed to the AfCom for consideration to make
us a Wikimedia Ghana User Group.
If you have anything to add, or changes to make, please head over to the
Meta page to make things happen accordingly. You can also use the talk page
on there for discussions and or leave them in the mailing list.

Lets hear from each other then.

I hope to add more of the presentations so you can watch as soon as
possible.
Enock, Felix and Raphael should be be able to update you guys properly in
person when they arrive on Tuesday.
Don't ask them where they stayed, I guess they might be out of words to
describe.
Thanks.
