Hi Oscar,

Thanks for following this through. I can't open the etherpad on my mobile, so I apologize in advance if I ask questions that are already answered in the etherpad.

1.) Out of the 3, how many people have signed up so far?

2.) what do you mean by hiring a venue?

3.) which institutions are you planning to visit?

4.) why are you stating that Wikimedia Kenya is in a state of budgetary insufficiency?

Sincerely,
Abbas.
