Hi folks,
The Wikimedia Community all over the world is busy preparing for Wikipedia 10. Please check: http://ten.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page for more info.
The Foundation will be sending some awesome Wikimedia paraphernalia including: * tshirts (two styles, one a basic Wikipedia shirt and the other a Wikipedia '10' 'team shirt')* a pack of 12 Wikipedia 10th anniversary buttons, and simple Wikipedia puzzle globe buttons * paper labels with the Wikipedia tenth logo and style* and Wikipedia vinyl stickers* (and maybe some other cool stuff)
They'll also send out kits of 50 tshirts of varying sizes -- though if we're hosting a bigger event, they'll send out more.
Lastly, Ting will be arriving here on 9th Jan and departing on 15th Jan. He'll be staying at Laico Regency, and I do hope LR offers airport pickup as well (since he'll be arriving at 3am!!).
--Abbas.

Abbas,
Laico may not be offering that, I think its important to work with a tour company for the transfer and probably his entire transport. Why is hosting the event an IF?
On another note, I talked to Jessica, please email her introductory materials and an update on our activities, she is interested in joining. Subscribe her to the list, jessica@ihub.co.ke

Laico may not be offering that, I think its important to work with a tour company for the transfer and probably his entire transport. Why is hosting the event an IF? I'll talk to the Office of the Executive Director so that we can liaise Ting's expenses. Regarding the "if", I hadn't written that email; rather I copied and pasted it from another source, so pardon me for the typo. Speaking of which, how many people are we targeting? 100? 150?

I think 150 is a good number...
How is the budgeting for that going? Did we decide on a venue? I would suggest Jessica assists in the planning too, she has lots of experience from her current job.

No, the venue isn't confirmed yet. I'm meeting an accountant tomorrow who'll assist me in finalizing the pilot's budget. Grace is working on the launch's budget. Laico charges 2,8k per head while Norfolk charges 3k per head. I'm told that Laico's food is not that good:-P The above charges include a four-oclock tea as well as dinner. Do you have any other venues in mind?

As for the venue, try visiting eatout.co.ke they have a list of most of the hotels and restaurants in kenya. They list out the best places to go for meetings, corporate dining, cocktails, conference facilities, hotel dining, WiFi... the site also shows a map giving the location of every hotel included in their listing.

I think 150 is a good number...
How is the budgeting for that going? Did we decide on a venue? I would suggest Jessica assists in the planning too, she has lots of experience from her current job.

Abbas,
Laico may not be offering that, I think its important to work with a tour company for the transfer and probably his entire transport. Why is hosting the event an IF? I'll talk to the Office of the Executive Director so that we can liaise Ting's expenses. Regarding the "if", I hadn't written that email; rather I copied and pasted it from another source, so pardon me for the typo. Speaking of which, how many people are we targeting? 100? 150?
On another note, I talked to Jessica, please email her introductory materials and an update on our activities, she is interested in joining. Subscribe her to the list, jessica@ihub.co.ke Done. I'll send her the updates soon:-) David.

Hi folks,
The Wikimedia Community all over the world is busy preparing for Wikipedia 10. Please check: http://ten.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page for more info.
The Foundation will be sending some awesome Wikimedia paraphernalia including:
- tshirts (two styles, one a basic Wikipedia shirt and the other a Wikipedia
'10' 'team shirt')
- a pack of 12 Wikipedia 10th anniversary buttons, and simple Wikipedia
puzzle globe buttons
- paper labels with the Wikipedia tenth logo and style
- and Wikipedia vinyl stickers
- (and maybe some other cool stuff)
They'll also send out kits of 50 tshirts of varying sizes -- though if we're hosting a bigger event, they'll send out more.
Lastly, Ting will be arriving here on 9th Jan and departing on 15th Jan. He'll be staying at Laico Regency, and I do hope LR offers airport pickup as well (since he'll be arriving at 3am!!).

First of all, sincere apologies for absence, I have been offline due to the problems with one of the optical data cables to Juja, which is still being repaired. On top of that, I would like to congratulate you all for the great efforts about the project. Mr. Ting's arrival is such a well timed one, and I think it will expose our project to many all over Kenya. We only need to maximize his stay here for the good of the chapter. As the day approaches, I wish all of us a happy, wonderful and Successful 10th Birthday, and for us we may view this not as our birthday anniversary, but our own birth and let us say that next decade is ours.

As for the venue, try visiting eatout.co.ke they have a list of most of
the
hotels and restaurants in kenya. They list out the best places to go for meetings, corporate dining, cocktails, conference facilities, hotel
dining,
WiFi... the site also shows a map giving the location of every hotel included in their listing.

No, the venue isn't confirmed yet. I'm meeting an accountant tomorrow
who'll
assist me in finalizing the pilot's budget. Grace is working on the
launch's
budget. Laico charges 2,8k per head while Norfolk charges 3k per head.
I'm
told that Laico's food is not that good:-P The above charges include a four-oclock tea as well as dinner. Do you have any other venues in mind?

I think 150 is a good number...
How is the budgeting for that going? Did we decide on a venue? I would suggest Jessica assists in the planning too, she has lots of experience
from
her current job.

Abbas,
Laico may not be offering that, I think its important to work with a tour company for the transfer and probably his entire transport. Why is
hosting
the event an IF? I'll talk to the Office of the Executive Director so that we can liaise Ting's expenses. Regarding the "if", I hadn't written that email; rather
I
copied and pasted it from another source, so pardon me for the typo. Speaking of which, how many people are we targeting? 100? 150?
On another note, I talked to Jessica, please email her introductory materials and an update on our activities, she is interested in joining. Subscribe her to the list, jessica@ihub.co.ke Done. I'll send her the updates soon:-) David.

Hi folks,
The Wikimedia Community all over the world is busy preparing for
Wikipedia
- Please check: http://ten.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page for more info.
The Foundation will be sending some awesome Wikimedia paraphernalia including:
- tshirts (two styles, one a basic Wikipedia shirt and the other a
Wikipedia
'10' 'team shirt')
- a pack of 12 Wikipedia 10th anniversary buttons, and simple Wikipedia
puzzle globe buttons
- paper labels with the Wikipedia tenth logo and style
- and Wikipedia vinyl stickers
- (and maybe some other cool stuff)
They'll also send out kits of 50 tshirts of varying sizes -- though if
we're
hosting a bigger event, they'll send out more.
Lastly, Ting will be arriving here on 9th Jan and departing on 15th Jan. He'll be staying at Laico Regency, and I do hope LR offers airport pickup
as
well (since he'll be arriving at 3am!!).
