Greetings,
I am pleased to announce that the Midwest region of the United States now has our own
email list!
https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-us-mw -
wikimedia-us-mw(a)lists.wikimedia.org.
This discussion list allows for individuals in the Midwest US to discuss Wikimedia
related collaborations and events. It will also be used to discuss the possible formation
of a Midwest US Wikimedia Chapter, already in discussion at:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Midwest
The list will also house information on the upcoming Midwest US Meetup at Wikimania 2012:

I have volunteered to moderate the list at its start. Hopefully as leaders step up for
the Midwest, they can be added and take that task on in the future.
I look forward to engaging with folks in discussion there on the future of Wikimedia
involvement in the great Midwest!
