This is a late update for those who don't know about Wikimania 2013 Hong Kong, and a gentle reminder for those who are already aware of the annual Wikimedia conference that is being organized in Hong Kong on 7-11 August 2013. Scholarships to cover travel and living expenses are available for long-term contributors of our projects. If you are a long-term contributor to Wikipedia or any other Wikimedia projects, I would strongly recommend that you apply. Looking forward to a positive response, Anirudh.
