If those involved in the Oxford bid think it's viable, then we have an hour to create a page... I don't remember seeing much beyond idle speculation. Did anyone actually look into the possibility of Oxford hosting it?

There is a page, I thought, but it's unofficial.

I think someone has already contacted some University offices (OII? Balliol?) but I'm not sure anymore.

Arg I was away from e-mail yesterday.
I thought we had months left.
Has it closed now?

Sorry about this guys. It seems we're all too disorganised to host Wikimania anyway.
I was due to hear from the master of Balliol in the next week or so. (In fact I was going to a dinner he'd be attending on Wednesday and was intending to collar him then...)
I'd done quite a lot of work on the bid page, though obviously without knowledge of how much Balliol could help us reduce costs it wasn't a particularly convincing bid.
Unless we can persuade them to make an exception (seems unlikely) I guess it's 2010 now, which has the minor drawback of being in theory after I will have finished my DPhil so I might not be able to be as involved as I would otherwise.
