Dear Rachel,
I am no longer with Wikimedia Kenya. I've forwarded your request to
Wikimedia Kenya's mailing list and hopefully they will get back to you
with the appropriate response.
Sincerely
Abbas Mahmood.

Hey Abbas,
I hope you're well. I just wanted to touch base with you about the status
of this meetup - are you guys still meeting, or do you have any events
planned for the rest of the year?
Best,
Rachel

Hi all!
The plans to participate in the aforementioned subject had already
started with the preparation of a planning page [1]. There have been
some volunteers who have shown interest by signing up as willing to help
or participate in WLM 2012 [2]. I have responded to some private E-mails
from willing participants and I expect the enquiries to increase. I
therefore welcome more Wikimedians to assist me with that by probably
adding the email me in their commons usernames like I have done on mine.

Hi,
It has just come to my attention that we have yet to get Judges, settle on
National Judging Criteria and the ultimate prizes? I think we should put
in a grant request for this?
Will only photos on this [1] Official Monuments list count for WLM-KE? We
have newer or some monumental buildings that are not gazetted yet or did
not make it o this liost like:
1. Tom Mboya Munument
2. Dedan Kimathi
3. The Central place for measuring distances from Nairobi(cant get the
name but am sure Steve does, courtesy of G4S quiz :-) )
Cheers,

Hi,
i hope this finds you all well, last week i got a call from Dr Martin Njoroge, [our contact person at Kenyatta University] requesting for the offline wikipedia that he intended to give to his students taking a masters degree most of who are teachers at high schools. I was able to make 50 copies on dvd with both the kiwix application and the offline wikipedia.
On the day i was to give the students an illustration of how to install and use the kiwix application, something came up and i wasn't able to do it then. Sadly, they were going back home that evening. I was planning to come up with a text document illustrating how to install and use the kiwix app but i needed to first know if there's any available.. [preferably a video.. i've tried searching for on on youtube but the closest i got was this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mnvm7uxDhMs

Hi, folks.
Since the list was getting spammed and in need of admin attention, and as
the previous admin (Abbas) has left the chapter, I think it is time to
appoint one or two new admins, preferably from the chapter.
I have requested to be made admin of the list to stop the spam (should be
fine now, let me know if any spam makes it through!), but now that I have,
I'd like to pass the baton back to one of you.
Does anyone here feel they can take over administering this list (using the
Mailman Web interface)? Please only volunteer if you know what you're
doing. :)
Cheers,
Asaf
