Sorry, that's Jimmy Wales. I'd assume he'll attend :P.

Personally I have no preference but I know one of the jury's birthday falls during that time frame, and it is Jimmy's birthday on the 7th, so with jetlag and the like they may not be too thrilled by that :) - not enough to affect their decisions on the jury, but, you know, it doesn't help us :). Or is this a non-issue?

I have been told by UCL that it shouldn't be a problem having it

ie availability is not a problem - at this stage. If someone were to propose dates and add them where it says on the main bid page I
could
get back to UCL and get it confirmed.
I have added the dates I proposed earlier to the bid page http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2008/Bids/London. That's 2-6 August - broken down into 2-3 for hacking days (not all rooms required), and 4-6 for the main conference. Please change if you prefer other dates.
