Really? When do people do exams, then? If some people wouldn't be having exams in November, they'll probably be _preparing_ for upcoming exams -- and from experience, students don't want to engage in other activities when they are revising for exams. Moreover, I still feel we have a lot to do: -print banners, advertise-finalise the budget-give Wikimedia France at least a week (at best) to discuss, and approve the budget.-give another week to get the wire transfer into a Kenyan bank account.-buy the prizes (which are still undecided)-choose the jury (that will select the winners) If you think that you can pull that off within this month, then best of luck with that.

Hi, i don't think anyone has exams in November. The date set is quite OK (3rd Nov) and more so as stipulated the competition will only take two weeks. Regards
