Dear all,
Early registration for Wikimania ends today; after which the community rate for the conference tickets will go up. The preliminary program and proceedings are available from the conference site : http://wm06reg.wikimedia.org/ http://wikimania2006.wikimedia.org/wiki/Program
Scholarship applications are being reviewed and responded to over the next two days.
Other notes related to the conference schedule : There will be some outings on Thursday, before Wikimania begins. SIGGRAPH is taking place in Boston before Wikimania, during Hacking Days (Tuesday through Thursday); we're trying to arrange a tour of their exhibit floor. A Citizen Journalism event in the same building on Monday, the day after Wikimania ends : http://wikimania2006.wikimedia.org/wiki/Citizen_Journalism http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIGGRAPH
Finally, don't forget the Wikimania awards -- a t-shirt contest, and a media and writing contest. Nominations of great media (any free format) and writing (any language) are wanted; more information to come : http://wikimania2006.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_awards
Warmly, SJ
