I know this is super last minute, but, if any Finnish Wikipedians (or Wikipedians living in Helsinki) want to get a drink or are going to the conference, ping me off list. Feel free to forward this message to anyone you know.

I am a nativeborn Helsinki-dweller. I don't have the funds to buy a
ticket to the events, and have limited material means to assist
visitors, but local knowledge is a strong suit. Any questions I can
help with, feel free to contact me by this gmail-account, or via
personal message on FaceBook. Also, if someone wants to visit the
"secret" awesomeness in Helsinki, on which ever theme, you could do
worse than have me as a tour guide; at least I would know who to
contact if doors need to be opened, even if what you are interested is
something I cannot get you to see myself.
