Hello, everyone! Many of you have already received personal invitations to attend RecentChangesCamp Montreal; for those of you who we've missed, I wanted to send this broadcast message. RecentChangesCamp is a world-wide "unconference" for wiki technologists, wiki users and wiki admins. Also invited are people from related technology and community practises, as we look for common ground on community, collaboration, and self-organizing behaviour. The event is free of charge for all participants. The previous two RecentChangesCamp events in Portland have been extremely fun and interesting for participants. http://www.recentchangescamp.org/ RecentChangesCamp Montreal ("RoCoCoCamp") will be held in Montreal, Quebec from 18-20 May 2007. It will be a three-day conference with the agenda set by the participants, using [[Open Space Technology]]. http://www.rocococamp.info/ No keynotes, no hours-long slide presentations, no conference tracks: the emphasis of RecentChangesCamp is on bringing together smart, talented people for productive, peer-to-peer talks. People involved with or concerned about the Wikimedia Foundation are strongly encouraged to attend. Not only will there be opportunities to talk about and work on Foundation issues with other WMF participants, but there will also be participants from other non-profit and for-profit wiki organizations as well. It's a great opportunity for sharing WMF experiences and for gathering information about the rest of the wiki world. If you would like to attend, please sign up on our wiki: http://www.rocococamp.info/Participants We're arranging lodging for a variety of budgets (from couch-surfing to the Hyatt). Travel to Montreal can be quite inexpensive; North Americans can find reasonable flights, and rail travel from the East Coast is both accessible and affordable. Europeans are especially encouraged to look at discount Transatlantic flyer Zoom Airlines. Please check out our wiki if you have any questions; also feel free to contact anyone in our all-volunteer organizing group. You can write to me directly or call my cell phone (+1-514-554-3826). Thanks, -Evan ________________________________________________________________________ Evan Prodromou <evan(a)prodromou.name> http://evan.prodromou.name/
