Hey all, does anyone know if we've submitted/started an annual report
for 2017? Mostly I'm just asking if anyone has actually done this and I
just didn't notice - I was planning to do this myself several months
ago, but my health kind of took a downturn and I sort of lost track of
things. If not, I'll see what all we need to do to get on that, but let
me know.
Thanks!

Hey all, for anyone who's interested and hasn't necessarily gotten
around to it, general reminder that submissions and scholarship
applications are due tomorrow. So if you're like me and haven't
submitted anything yet and/or applied for a scholarship and want to, do
these now!
If you haven't done this before, proposal submissions are
talks/panels/workshops for basically anything we might see at any other
Wikimedia event, but also especially stuff applicable to local groups
and whatnot. Like what have we even been doing as a group?
And if you're wondering if you should apply for a scholarship, the
answer is yes. They're very straight forward, you just get 500$ to
figure out your own trip and that should cover most of it, and if you do
anything at all, you're probably in the running for getting one. If
you're subscribed to this list, you probably do something. If you're an
academic, you also have a more academia-style option to look into.
As a side note, in the past I may have mentioned how we should maybe try
combining the photo road trip idea with getting people to this
conference, but this was before I realised just how far away Ohio really
is. I thought it was close to Colorado! It's not! This one's further
away than San Diego! But even if that's not necessarily feasible for
this, we should still totally look into doing that sort of road trip at
some point, hint hint. Maybe if some of us meet up at the conference, we
could plan something then? I dunno.
