LOL it's ok! I got that response a lot at Wikimania - my real name is "Jessica," but no one calls me that so sometimes I forget.
Glad I can make you happy, Grace! :)

This is great news!
One thing that you could advertise at Kabarak, if students are wanting to be more involved and stay involved, is the formation of *Wikipedia Student Groups*. There is a lot more information here: http://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Student_Organizations
Also: i love the Wikipedia earrings idea..this sounds like a great first product for a Wikipedia Merchandise Store :)

Hi all,
Just got home and I'm super tired, so I'll be brief.
We had a busy time at the conference. Steve led Wikimedia's presence
here
and was totally awesome! Grace always made sure we made it for tea and
lunch
in time :) , Isaac did live updates with a bunch of guys via Skype and
we
even got to say hi to Fiona Apps (does Wikimedia outreach in UK) and
gave
her a glimpse of the ongoings here. Ann did great to chat down Steve's nerves before his presentation (he did great by the way) and ps, thanks
for
the ice cream , Abbas out of nowhere reinforced us with swag.
We also got invited to another event in Kabarak University which is a
few Km
from Nairobi. Steve should have more infor on this.
Ladies (as they prefer to be called) at the conference kept asking for
Wiki
earings! It took us a while to figure out what they meant. Pics coming
up on
that and Wiki heals.... :)
All in all, thumbs up to all WMKE members who managed to attend and
plan
this, Emmanuel, Manuel and Jessie for helping us setup our presentation
and
Asaf and Winifred from the Foundation for sending over Wikipedia swag
and
making sure they arrived on time.
Best, Alex.
