Today started the second Big Fat Brussels Meeting in Brussels. [1] Representatives from
several Wikimedia chapters and other volunteers are now present to discuss, draft and
decide the future of our advocacy efforts on the European Union level and the general
organisational development of the Free Knowledge Advocacy Group EU. Besides the present
chapters, other European chapters support us in work of the Free Knowledge Advocacy
Group.
We started today with a short round who is who, including the adoption of our mascot Wendy
the Weasel, acronym for Wikimedia European Action System for Enthusiastic Lobbying. See

A part of the program of these days is organized together with UNSECO; World Book and
Copyright Day. [2]
Next meetings/activities: at Wikimania in London and in autumn in Brussels.
Greetings from the group from Brussels!
