That's a positive suggestion, but I don't think it would be effective in
this case for two reasons:
1. Most of the shipments were not to people who have access to Internal.
Quite a
few of them aren't even signed up for this public mailing list.
Then find some place that all people can have access to host the
information. I think the Ten wiki could be a good place.
2. The purpose of a wiki is getting input from as many
people as possible,
but shipping will always be the responsibility of a just a few
particular
folks handling the actual products. That doesn't change whether you're
communicating via wiki, email, or blog.
I think the purpose of a wiki is not only for people to input but also for
people to share information. I agree the shipping is the responsibility of a
few folks handling the product, but it would effect people who join our
events.
Because I have expected the shipping might not arrive before our event from
the Hong Kong case, we didn't tell people about the Party Pack but made our
own Wiki-X buttons. We still have a good time in our Wiki-X event.

another mail asking for confirmation for the delivery. However, there's no
response I've got. This not only happened in our case but also in Hong Kong
case. I really appreciated your hard working on this wonderful party pack,
and I also understand it would be a huge work to deliver packs to over 400
different places, but lacks of response will make us feel we are throwing a
ball to an endless hole and we might be waiting for something that would
never been shipped. Maybe we can have some solution for this in the future
so we can avoid this kind of situation?

What do you think?

That doesn't count time for customs or any delays in shipping due to weather
etc., so shipping from the 18th when you sent out your request would
probably not have made it in time.

Wikimedia Taiwan. Our Winter Meetup and Wiki 10 celebration event will be
held on this Sunday. If we don't receive the merchandise by tomorrow, then
it would not be possible to give the merchandise to any Taiwanese Wikimedian
attendees.
