Hi,
8 people showed up to for this first event and we discussed our ideas and
plans for the future series of events. We agreed that while we want these
to have an informal interactive feel much of the time, we should start off
and mix in formal program with a speaker or a panel to gather interest. We
also want these programs to be inclusive and interesting to newcomers.
Topic ideas for the first event include ocean conservation, San Francisco
and its history, local edit-a-thon experiences and open-source
intelligence. Right now we're trying to look for speakers, so if you know
someone or have an exciting idea, please share at
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Monthly_WikiSalon_in_San_Francisco.
We set a deadline of next week to make a decision on the details so stay
tuned for another announcement. We plan to have the event the last
Wednesday of the month.
