Perhaps something to be taken offlist with those interested, so we don't
break any confidences?

Hi Stevie,
I'm already in discussion with somebody involved with the convention. We
haven't got anything firm yet (there was going to be more conversation at
the Coventry meetup on the 30th), so unless you've already made some
headway, perhaps we should merge the conversations?

Hello everyone,
I'm aware that asking this question here may just cause my inbox to
melt...
I recently met with the organiser of a sci-fi film festival. As a part of
the festival they have a big convention which is, I think, being held at
the ExCel arena this year in London.
It's early days but we're exploring the possibility of Wikimedia UK doing
something within the convention. There will be lots of writers there, and
sci-fi film folk. There's lots of scope for things, such as getting photos
and sound files for Commons, editing training, an editathon... there's lots
of potential.
If anyone is interested in meeting with the convention / festival
organiser do let me know and we'll see if we can set something up.
Thank you,
Stevie
