Count me in for helping out here! I'd love to see Wikimani come to London - I'm an A/V specialist so I could even run a lot of the technical stuff that needs doing.

I'm not sure how long the blurb should be. I've written a bit, feel free to add or scrub :)
Someone add something about Wikimedia UK and get clues from the 2007 bid; I'm only going to be available by e-mail for the rest of the afternoon and can't edit.

I too would love to have Wikimania in London; well as you say England - but if anyone has any alternate towns or cities then, go for it I suppose?

I will try and add to it today - the Cape Town bid <http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2008/Bids/Cape_Town>[1] has lots of sections and ideas to think about we can use ourselves.

I live near Manchester, which would probably be more ideal for me, but London, I think would be more suitable for Wikimania. Also, there's the fact I couldn't really organise anything myself, but would be happy to help out elsewhere. -- Alex (Majorly) _______________________________________________ Wikimedia UK mailing list wikimediauk-l@wikimedia.org <mailto:wikimediauk-l@wikimedia.org> http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_UK http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l-- Gary Kirk
