Hi David. It is not a bad thing to nominate yourself. Considering the period we have and from my past experience (Wikimania 2010), it would be easier on someone who already has a travel passport. According to me, we should consider the following when sending someone:<br>
<ol><li>Someone who has thorough acquaintance with the activities of Wikimedia Kenya, ranging from the formation to the current progress and projects...to the future plans of the chapter</li><li>Considering that the period between now and 27th March is very short, I would prefer someone who already has a travel passport or one who is sure to acquire it by then</li>
<li>Though not very necessary, we should consider gender sensitivity (1 female and 1 male)</li><li>A question that needs clarity to me since I haven&#39;t visited the registration page: who is gonna support the travel ticket and sponsor the stay there?</li>
<li>Consider the availability of the chosen persons. Let&#39;s not choose someone who will later start giving apologies that they are committed somewhere and can&#39;t make it to the conference</li></ol>I will not nominate anyone for now until I hear the sentiments of the other team members.<br>
<ul><li>Whoever we choose, please represent us well. Cheers<br></li></ul><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Jan 27, 2011 at 9:44 AM, David Mugo <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:raidarmax@gmail.com">raidarmax@gmail.com</a>&gt;</span> wrote:<br>

I had assumed it was a selection so I had gone ahead and filled the forms. <br>
<br>
I post this to invite nominations for the same... am not sure if am allowed to but I would nominate myself alongside someone else... but I think lets agree on a criteria for the same, I believe it needs to be of benefit to all of us. So lets hear you. <br>
