All,<div><br></div><div>I&#39;ve just seen a rather impressive presentation from the London Wikimania bid team. I thought it best to let you know that last night there was a raft of updates to the public bid page at <a href="http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2014_bids/London">http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2014_bids/London</a>, including some videos, a (draft) budget, and a fundraising strategy. </div>

<div><br></div><div>I think it&#39;d really help if the community took a look through the pages and thought about potential weaknesses for the bid. At the moment, London looks likely to win: as a result, we really need to start looking critically <b>(but supportively!) </b>at the bid.</div>
