Hey Ant,

I already volunteered to work on Wikimania 2008 :), I had a chat with 
Theodoranian and told him I was more than available to participate and 
do whatever it is they need me to do, I'm also in the wikimania-l mail 
list :). I'll see if any of the other guys in Venezuela is interested, 
but is not going to be easy to raise money to go there (not to mention 
getting Visas). I'm already saving up money and now I have a grand total 
of 105$! out of 2400$ in Air fare :).

Anyways, if there's anything else I can do, either for the Foundation or 
    to Wikimania, I'm available (I defend Thesis on Nov 20, so after 
that I'm pretty much done with university yay! :) ).

Regards,

Damian Finol
Maracaibo, Venezuela.
