I fully agree with Dumisani.  Massive thanks to Maarten and Lourie for their great work on Wiki Loves and driving the project.  I think it is going great and I just I had more time to commit to it my self although I will certainly do what I can.

Also the application for the Wikimania bid 2014 is, I agree, some thing we need to start thinking about.

Cheers,

Douglas.

Hi Guys and Girls.

I want to commed all of you who participated in the Social Development focus
ducument for this Wiki Loves Monuments project. The response has been
overwhelming, with almost 7 people who commented and edited the document
online!! We are definately on the right track.

I also want to send a special thanks to Lourie and Maarten for exceptional
dedication to this project, and for willing to put up with my pedantic
unpleasant nagging. In the past two weeks we have done a month's worth of work
on the project. If we keep this momentum going, we should be able to catch up
on the month we are behind with according to global wiki loves monuments
schedule.

There is a long way to go still, below are some of the things we still need to
achieve inorder to have a clean bill of health.

1) Complete Website design for WLM-2012 za site. The site is live and under
construction. I will have some time this weekend so I can do a bit of work
here. There are some bugs I am finding and will send through to Lourie as my
coding is as good as my criminal law knowledge.

2) Tie-up Social development focus document and then enrich the presentation
document from the Western cape meeting with Heritage department to suit future
presentations. Decide on GP meeting with Heritage department and see if we
cant also arrange one with department of basic education.

3) Get chapter website live and start setting up.

4) Start brainstorming 2014 Wikimania Bid. We have got to bring this one
home!!

Ofcourse there are many other things I missed out but this is just to plot a
way foward for the year. With only six months left to the year and factoring
that we are all volunteers with life commitments.... this is a tall order, but
am sure that with the current momentum we should succeed.

Thank you guys for participating, its up to all of us to make this chapter
work.

Regards
Annoying Dumi :-)
