We are looking at August 9 or 16, or a later Sunday, as potential dates for
an August virtual WALRUS Wiknic.
Let me know if folks have preferences for dates or ideas about content of
the virtual Wiknic.
Thanks,

Update: After the call, we reconfigured to focus on a
series of smaller
events leading up to a global "Wiki Week" in January:

The first of these would be a virtual Wiknic, probably on a Sunday in
mid-late August:

Join our planning session for "Wiki
Week", a concept for an online social
alternative to Wikimania this year, so we can figure out format and date
ideas:

You can RSVP there, and I'll also send you a direct calendar invite if
wanted.
It's 3pm Eastern / 12pm Pacific on Sunday July 26.
The planning session will be on Google Meet:

The project might be more or less ambitious, depending on how many people
are interested, and on what we can schedule.
This would provide a partial alternative to Wikimania / WikiConference
North America, and conceivably even apply aspects of the Wiknic.
Thanks,
