Hi All,

Per our discussion at our last meeting with Asaf, I brought up an idea that a few of us have been discussing, that is, applying for a PEG (Project and Event Grant.. rolling application..) to create a small-grants program shared by Wikimedia NYC and New England Wikimedians http://ne-wikimedians.org/wiki/Home. That way, if someone from either chapter wanted to attend a Wikipedia event in the NYC/New England area, they could apply for a small grant for travel and a hostel.

I've put the idea up on Idealab. Please sign your name if interested, and perhaps we can continue the discussion on-Wiki.

Thanks!
