This email was sent in august 2006. We said it would be better to start
planning Wikimania 2008 in advance, and before Wikimania 2007 happens. As
far as I know, not much has been done yet. For the record, there are current
bids, but not many seem to be serious:

So, maybe "we" should think about it :) (call this email a "friendly
reminder"...)
