It was almost certain that a decent bid from Asia would be successful.
We look forward to Wikimania 2007 and hope that Wikimania will swing
back to Europe in 2008!

Then why did they open a WorldWide Contest?
They knew they were going to choose a city in Asia, then why
shortlisting 3 city out of Asia (and only one in it)?
That's ridicolous.
If "turnation" was that important, they would have told in a very
clear way by the begin: "We are gonna choose Asia, cities from Asia
can make a bid. Others not".

(that's what I talk about when I use the verb "be fooled")
OK. My mistake. I guess I was aware of a the discussions being about
rotating the venues.
