As some of the members of this list will be aware, there was a meeting yesterday morning of parties interested in a UK bid for Wikimania 2012. The minutes of the meeting are available at http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2014/Planning_meeting_1/Notes for those who are interested.

As a result of the meeting, the decision was taken that a bid will be submitted for London, and the organising committee for this bid was formed (http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2014/Planning_meeting_1/Notes#Organising_committee).

The next meeting of the committee will be held at 11:00 on Sunday, 10 June 2012. See http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2014/Planning_meeting_2 for details.

Anybody interested in joining the organising committee who couldn't make it to yesterday's meeting, please contact me directly.


For the organising committee,

Harry Mitchell
