Arkady says Wikimedia Educational Resources' records will be updated soon (go, Arkady!!). I've raised the finance/charity related things with the board, and by email with Cary and WMF, so far so good. We're also all waiting for news if Alison's bank idea shortcut works, but they probably won't have a reply this week. Oxford sounds great. When will they be ready to come back to us? Other stuff... The student club idea's great, but will a research/editing club really be appealing or what would attract people and make them stick past college? If we did seek startup donations of "a sum of your choice between £150 and £250" contingent on charity registration and say payable over 12-15 months to kickstart the charity, how many would be interested? I've also done some work on a basic presentation for the banks before now that we could adapt, if anyone wants to start a team to work on presenting and promoting, and designing promotional material. I've got a lot of commercial experience in the conference business that might help (mostly commercial conferences and 10 years ago but I might have an odd contact from those days for organization, information and planning ideas). Re materials, if we're researching venues and accomodation, then promotional materials helps everyone when we're pitching for support and facilities, we can put them online to get early traction for the bid. Things like theme + banners, handouts, multimedia presentations, mail-outs/leaflets can help a lot if we need to pitch to anyone and we'd need them anyway. Anyone with flash, web, marketing and promotion, or graphic design skills who wants to grab this and get the team going?
