Re: [Wikimedia Kenya] Mombasa Pre-Visit

Just spoke to Isaac from Egerton and he is available for the Mombasa pilot. So guess, we can include him in this team. Alex.

That being said, Dennis, Branton, David are still available. I'm not sure whether Sam could join you. Do we have any other members that would be available to join the Mombasa pilot? I'm really sorry that we at Strathmore wouldn't be able to make it. BTW, do you guys think we should also engage AISEC in our activities?

Re: [Wikimedia Kenya] SATURDAY MEETUP and Kakamega Pilot

Hey Asaf, Thanks for the awesome advice. With the feedback we've already received from the Egerton team as well as Oscar's pre-visit in Kakamega, it's evident that our feedback to the Openzim project and Kiwix will be of great help to their development. I'll definately post any supporting docs we come up with on the projects site. I've been researching on zim files and scripts used to generate them for the better part of the evening and I think it would be great if we were to take this up in the future, just my thoughts. Ps: our schools project is featured on the Openzim's project home page. Cheers, Alex.

[Wikimedia Kenya] Fwd: [Chapters meeting 2011] Programme: first draft
by Bence Damokos 21 Feb '11

21 Feb '11

Dear all, Based on the input you have given through the brainstorming page[1] I have put the first draft of the schedule of this year's Chapters Meeting online at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Conference_2011/Schedule, Note that this is not the final schedule. I would like to incorporate your feedback on the draft and to assign specific content to the broader or vaguer topics – if you have any suggestions on this, please get in touch with me. As you will notice, there are about three major topic areas that come up in a number of sessions. The main themes build on the discussions we had in the previous years on chapter projects (outreach and otherwise) and development. New this year is the emphasis given to the discussion about various aspects of movement roles that will hopefully clarify and improve on the relationships among actors in the movement and inform the development of a movement charter due by this year's Wikimania. Time will be set aside also for discussion in smaller groups about some specific issue that you would like to tackle. Some suggestions so far have been: creating a framework to handle justified legal complaints; to continue the discussion about the developing world and concrete steps Wikimedia can do to spread its mission, or to continue the toolserver governance discussion. I would very much appreciate your input either here or in private about your thoughts on the schedule, possible working groups, or the content of particular sessions. Thank you, Bence -- Bence Damokos Programme Coordinator, Wikimedia Conference 2011 [1] http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Chapters_meeting_2011/Brainstorming

Hi Guys, We appreciate your support and congratulatory messages. My team are asking to know if we will get support from you guys as we prepare to participate in the National exhibitions organized by Commission of higher education Kenya. The venue will be Kakamega on 17th-19th march and we plan to forward our project tomorrow. Our worry is we don't have posters and any other accompanying material, that is the challenge we faced during the open day, infact we were forced to create and print wikimedia leaflets and posters for our stand. Hope you guys will support On 2/21/11, wikimediake-request(a)lists.wikimedia.org <wikimediake-request(a)lists.wikimedia.org> wrote: > Send WikimediaKE mailing list submissions to > wikimediake(a)lists.wikimedia.org > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediake > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > wikimediake-request(a)lists.wikimedia.org > > You can reach the person managing the list at > wikimediake-owner(a)lists.wikimedia.org > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of WikimediaKE digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
