Dear all, 

thanks to Wikimedia Österreich we are organizing the first international Wikisource Conference, which will be held in Wien, Austria, from November 20 till 22, this year.

We are finalizing the application for a WMF grant, and would like to receive some feedbacks:

Hopefully, everything will go for the better and we will receive the money.

From there, a lot of work have to be done!

Here there is the page for the conference on Meta:

It's up to *you* to come up with a program for the conference :-)

Seriously: it's important that this will be a community event, and community curated too.

We will have many things to discuss, and we hope it will be great event.

And yes: if everything goes as expected, there will be scholarships, but it's crucial that we involve our Chapters. 

More on this soon.

Spend some time in the weekend to give us some honest feedback!

I hope you are excited about this as we are. 

Thanks

Andrea, David, Claudia
