Hej igen,
Jag har nu haft en kort diskussion med Mike Halterman, som skrev på min diskussionssida. Han skriver så här om kostnaderna för att hålla en Wikimania.
Med vänliga hälsningar,
Lennart Guldbrandsson, ordförande för Wikimedia Sverige

Mike wrote on your Wall:
"Usually the cost of a Wikimania is between $100,000 and $150,000. However, sponsorships from corporations end up paying for the event so it's not as if people would have to pay out of pocket to put on this event. Also, since it's a Nordic collaboration, one can ask national/international businesses from all five countries, especially ones related to technology. Nokia, Ericsson, etc. I put a bid together for 2008 (it lost to Alexandria) so I know how the process works and I can guide everyone through what needs to be done and what attention has to be paid where.
Each budget is different for each bid, depending on the costs that are incurred, and end up being put together before the bid is chosen. If the jury feels the budget is too much, it simply won't be picked. The Foundation usually helps the team figure out how to budget everything once it's picked and they also deal with the money from sponsors. It's not anything that Wikimedia Sverige would have to deal with personally."
