I have created a comparison of the bid with the judging criteria at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2010/Bids/Oxford/Criteria and have flagged up some areas which may need further information or clarifications.

As many of you may be aware, from saturday onwards I will be off the coast of scotland with no likely internet access, poor 3G and irregular mobile signal.
I need to know who has had experience with events like wikimania, who has attened wikimania or similar free knowledge/open source before, technical knowledge on running events, press experience, accounting etc etc. With this information a section can be drafted up about the abilities of the local team etc. If replies are simply posted here with a brief outline that will be most helpful
Two sections still need work and then the bid page will be relatively complete. They are: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2010/Bids/Oxford#Cost_of_living http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2010/Bids/Oxford#Travel_costs
Also this http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_Bid/Press/prewin%C2%A0press release which will need to go out next week need work.
If everyone can concentrate on these four things, I will be confident that our bid will be complete. Lets get these last few pieces together and have a complete bid when going into the close of bidding next week.
