Sorry to those who already read this on wikimania-l, but I'm especially looking for people who will understand the tech sessions at Wikimania to act as moderators for those.
If you would like to volunteer, please let me know as soon as possible.
Moderating basically involves introducing the speaker and then making sure they finish on time, and sometimes handling questions from the audience at the end when there's time for a Q&A session. You will also need to find the speaker before the event and make sure they're happy with the arrangements and know where they're going.
The "Technical infrastructure" sessions that need moderating include:
Session 4 (Saturday) * Brion Vibber: Hacking MediaWiki * Hacking days review
Session 6 (Saturday) * Christoph Sauer: What you see is wiki - Questioning WYSIWYG in the internet age * Darniet Jennings: Why WYSIWIKI? * Timothy Chklovski: Collecting Computer-useable knowledge from volunteer contributors * Chris Luer: Disambiguation: the key to information architecture?
Session 7 (Sunday) * Technical lightning talks/future of search * Paul Sponagl: Device independent access to Wikipedia * Kasper Souren: Wikipedia on the Nokia 770
