Hello Paulo,
I just wonder, what is the thing you are concretely lacking to realize this projects?
Cheers

(Just a quick followup on the important GLAM and FOSS
events that were
risking being cancelled here in Portugal due to complete lack of WMF
support: While looking to all our options, I remember we had already
planned a meeting with the Embassy of the Russian Federation in Lisbon
about the Wikipedia Asia Month and the divulgation of the Russian
culture
here in Portugal, including Madeira Island, where we have a strong
relation
since the times of the czars until today, mainly covering arts and
tourism.
I've contacted the Embassy, which showed interest on this project, so
I've
just added those two events to the project we already add, to try to
save
them adjusting them to the scope of the Russian culture, and I expect
we
could meet in the next few days, hopefully still in time to save the
events

It is very sad that, despite Wikimedia Portugal
currently having
everything up to date, being a very active and thriving chapter,
being the
only remaining Portuguese-speaking Wikimedia
organization in the
whole
Wikimedia movement, also acting as a facilitator
to all the Wikimedia
communities all over the Portuguese-speaking world on their relation
with
the rest of the Wikimedia movement, and having
fulfilled all its
obligations, including all those requested by AffCom, AffCom has
decided to
unilaterally force an extension of the chapter
suspension for more
three
months, claiming they need more time to look into
the case.
This not only made it impossible or almost impossible to carry on a
lot of
activities that were already scheduled for those
three months,
including
our organization, co-organization and
participation on two key
national
scope GLAM and FOSS events, including a GLAM
promotion event
co-organized
with the National Library aimed the divulgation
of GLAM partnerships
and
projects to other similar institutions in the
country, and the first
Ubuntu
Conference in Portugal, with an obvious damage of
the name of
Wikimedia
along those GLAM and FOSS institutions and
groups, but effectively
blocked
us from taking part on the Wikimedia Summit, as
the limit ends next
17
December, much before the new limit of the
extension AffCom has
imposed.
These are sad times for the Wikimedia movement here in Portugal.
Anyway, I wish the best for those of you that will be attending the
Wikimedia Summit next year, and sincerely hope it will be a success.
