Christopher, Aya,
Speaking as a jury member, the reason we disqualified Bali and Dar es
Salaam was that those two bids were not really complete enough to score.

Congratulations to Wikimedia Mexico and Mexico City!
I add my voice to that of Cooper concerning the criteria of choosing the
winner for 2015. In addition to the cities that Cooper has mentioned, I
would like to know what happened with Bali's bid too.
Kind Regards,
Aya Saif El-yazal Mahfouz

Congratulations to Wikimedia Mexico and all those
that helped put the bid
together. I believe Mexico City will turn out to be a great place to host
Wikimania and I look forward to attending.
Regardless, I hope when appropriate, the reasons Mexico City were chosen
and where other bids could have done better will be posted somewhere for
digestion as done in previous years. In particular, while the bid was
clearly lacking, it would be helpful to have an official answer to why
the
Dar es Salaam was disqualified.
Kind regards,
Christopher
