Dear all,
I write to announce the Jury to select which bid will be chosen to host Wikimania in 2014.
The twelve members will be:
- Deror Avi - [[User:Deror avi]] from Israel (Wikimania 2011 General Manager)
- Philippe Beaudette - [[User:Philippe (WMF)]] from the US (Wikimedia
Foundation Director, Community Advocacy)
- Jeromy-Yu Chan - [[User:Yuyu]] from HK (Wikimania 2013 Co-ordinator-in-Chief)
- Shujen Chang - [[User:Shujenchang]] from HK
- Florence Devouard - [[User:Anthere]] from France
- Orsolya Gyenes - [[User:OrsolyaVirág]] from Hungary (Wikimania 2012
Deputy Program Chair)
- James Hare - [[User:Harej]] from the US (Wikimania 2012 Co-chair)
- Achal Prabhala - [[User:Aprabhala]] from India - Wikimedia Advisory
Board member
- Konarak Ratnakar - [[User:Kondicherry]] from India
- Noopur Raval - [[User:Noopur28]] from India
- Manuel Schneider - [[User:80686]] from Austria (Wikimedia
Österreich; perpetual Wikimania organiser)
- [[User:Whiteghost.ink]] from Australia
Jan-Bart de Vreede and Sam Klein (of the Wikimedia Foundation Board) will also be part of the Jury, as normal.
I and Phoebe Ayers - [[User:Phoebe]] - will be serving as moderators, neutral aides for the Jury who do not vote.
To re-iterate what we've said before, it would be lovely if this was the last year we used this process, and that for 2015 onwards we could create a new, community-led and more open and transparent process. Some earlier discussions took place at [[m:Talk:Wikimania Advisory Group]]. Please feel free to give your thoughts there.
As a reminder, bids have two weeks (until 23:59 UTC on 3 March 2013) until bidding creation closes. All cities which intend to run for the bidding process should have created a page on meta and entered the official list by this point.
Thank you, and good luck to all Bids.
Yours,

Dear Adethya,
Adding James to the conversation because he can explain this better. Also, here is an open call that James did send out for jury volunteers on 10th February :http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/wiki/wikimania/333694?do=post_view_thr...
As for me, I could tell you how I came on board. I was approached by Deror Avi from Israel and his rationale was to have a wider representation (people from Asia, women, some experience with organizing events). I hope that answers your question :)
Best,
Noopur
