Hi,
I'm delighted to pass on this message of thanks from one of our Australian close friends. Having so many of our 'Ambassadors' at GLAMsterdam was a great demonstration of how committed the chapter is to our GLAM programme and a great opportunity to create and maintain good will relationships with many other chapters.
We will be building up to the global GLAMwiki conference on 14-15 September 2012 in London, if you want to be more involved or have ideas for the GLAM programme drop me a note.

Dear Wikimedia UK,
I wanted to thank your organisation on a personal level and on behalf of Wikimedia Australia for the kindness extended to me GLAM Camp Amsterdam. All the members I met from Wikimedia UK were supportive, kind and willing to listen to me. Many showed general interests in the projects I am involved with as an Australian GLAM representative. In turn, the members from WM UK that I talked to were happy to answer questions about the programs you run and how your chapter works. Several members specifically who were extremely helpful included PanyD, Mike Peel, HJ Mitchell, Brian McNeill, Johnbod and Marek69. I learned a lot from them and other members from your chapter, and this will help my chapter and GLAM efforts in Australia.
Sincerely, Laura Hale Wikimedia Australia, Vice President
