I hope none of you are expecting me to be representative for our <s>joke</s> bid. If I can find a PC I might drop in lurk. Seriously, why did nobody withdraw us? Now we look even more stupid. Karlsruhe had an unfortunate hand in their conference venue being unavailable, but they were dignified and bowed out. What's special about us that we didn't? You might not care what I think, but I'll tell you: I'm disappointed for the chapter and for the UK.

All,
This is just a reminder that there will be a public meeting on Freenode IRC in #wikimania2008 at 15:00 UTC today (that is, in just under 5 hours' time) between the Jury and the Bids' teams.
Hope to see you all there.
On behalf of the Jury.
Yours,
