Dear All
Thanks for the continued interest.
After Friday's meeting, and enthusiasm from all the attendees at it, it
looks like we have the complete support of the Western Cape Government
heritage department for the Wiki Loves Monuments. The next step is to secure
national support via SAHRA (South African Heritage Resources Agency) and
other provincial heritage departments. We have a meeting with SAHRA on
Monday to discuss the implications of the competition for them.
Maarten, Lourie and I are going to now construct the concept, mechanics and
rollout document. When it is ready we will put it out to all for feedback.
Please let me know if anyone else wants to be involved from a planning and
meeting point of view.
Thanks!

>> Hey all,
>>
>> we had a very interesting chat this morning with the Director Western
>> Cape, Andrew Hall. He was extremely interested in the WLM competition, and
>> actually wanted to start right away.
>>
>> Next Friday we have a follow meeting with other people from the Heritage
>> organisation (other provinces, national level, ...). Things should really
>> be moving then. Btw, you're invited to join this meeting in Cape Town.
>>
>> Things discussed:
>>
>> - 24 September is Heritage day. We should do something special on this
>> day (uploadmarathon, ...)
>> - Three levels of Heritage Sites: National (about 15), Provincial
>> (5000 in SA, of which 2500 in WC), and Municipal Heritage (15000, only in
>> WC)
>> - The government is working on a database with all the heritage,
>> should be ready in July
>>
>> Next meetings:
>>
>> - 23 March: follow up, meeting with other people
>> -
>> - 12 April: meeting with the Counsil Executive Meeting (unsure if this
>> is of the municipality, on national level, of Heritage WC, ..)
>>
>> Conclusion: I think we're launched in SA :-)
>> Grtz,
>> Maarten
