other community members to submit proposals for fixes and features you'd

agenda anyone can edit, so please feel free to add any projects you'd like
to share.

The content is focused on North America, and Wiki-Yorkers can meet with

with lightning talks, open space sessions and a virtual lounge space.

The Friday Culture Crawl focuses on GLAM Wiki and cultural heritage. The
weekend sessions are made of events hosted by partners and original
content, such as an update on activity by North American Affiliates and a
session on the state of the Wikimedia 2030 movement strategy process.
It's not all business - the conference is also designed for social
interaction and fun. The presence of a WikiCheese meetup is rumored but
unconfirmed, and bring your own beverage and munchies for social activity
time. You'll be able to mingle in the various virtual small rooms for
topical chats, or perform at the Sock Puppet Stage or Talk Page Theater.
Hang out with friends old and new in the many zones in the virtual lounge.
