Hiho,
Since we quite often receive more or less important requests for wikipedia presentations, I am compiling a speakers' list on http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Presentations
I already added some people where I have reason to believe that they will do this Please a) add yourself if you are willing and feel qualified to hold talks about Wikipedia with * your area of expertise (general, technical, scientific studies etc.) * the languages in which you can speak * your area and b) provide me with a contact address so that I can mail such requests around
It would be especially nice to have some of the developers there.
greetings, elian

To quash the exaggerated rumors of my death, I'll point out that I have recently arranged my life to have more time to get back into to fray here (including resubscribing to Wikitech--I'm currently reading up on the current hardware setup--miles away from when I installed everything on Pliny and Larousse). I've spoken at conferences and such before, and would be happy to do so for Wikipedia. I'm a die-hard techie, but I can pretty competently talk legal/social issues too (especially copyright law, open source community, etc.)

Wow, can I really trust my eyes? Welcome back, Lee! :-) (BTW, your last message on this list was on 2003-07-30.)

Those were the days :-)
Great to "see" you again!
