Sounds really interesting, and I would be fully supportive of this, provided
we could get enough enthusiasts. New Delhi would be a great choice, IMO. But
then again, there is the ubiquitous question of sponsors.

Hi all.
Bids for Wikimania 2009 are going to open on Saturday. There is already an
unofficial India bid made at
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2009/India
. Should we bid for Wikimania? By that time we should (hopefully) have an
active India chapter and more people too. Take a look at
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2009
for more details. For all those who are not aware - Wikimania is the
annual conference of the Wikimedia foundation. Wikimania 2007 was held in
Taipei, Taiwan and was attended by close to 500 people. Wikimania 2008 is
going to be held in Alexandria, Egypt (home to the first library in the
world).
Do think and write your suggestions regarding Wikimania in India. We can
then decide a city and make the official bid.
