To coincide with the international press release being made on Monday, Wikimedia will be holding a cross-project fundraising drive. The details of this are not yet decided. If you would like to contribute to the decision, there will be a meeting on the #wikimedia IRC channel (see http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC_channels ).
The meeting will begin at 20:00 (UTC) (see http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Timezone_conversion ) on Friday 17 September, 2004.
If you have any points you would like to make before the meeting, or if you can not come to the meeting, please write them on http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fundraising_meeting%2C_September_2004 .
The chat will be logged to Meta for those unable to be there.
Angela.
