Sue Gardner will be in Toronto in early February and can attend a  
Wikimedia Canada Meet-Up mid-day or the afternoon of Sunday, February  
6. It is common when Sue travels that we ask local communities of  
Wikimedians to gather to provide Sue the ability to share information  
about the Foundation and to meet the individuals who are behind  
Wikipedia. In many cases local groups of volunteers locally organize  
these meet-ups.  I sent emails out to this list several months ago  
asking if anyone would be interested to organize a meet up around  
Sue's visit and no one replied.

I am considering organizing the logistics for a meet-up myself,  
however with my current travel and work load I am unable to focus on  
this until mid to late December at the earliest.

Please let me know if WM Canada is willing to organize their own meet- 
up.  I am happy to provide resources and support to whoever manages  
the development of the meet-up.

Regards,
James T. Owen
