I think there are a few good projects that we've implemented which can be added
to Lodewijk's survey.

Subject: [Internal-l] Dear chapters: Please send me your top 3 coolest projects
(apologies, forgot the link in the original)
Dear chapter representatives,
a little while ago, I embarked onto a crazy idea: try to make one overview
presentation for Wikimania of all the coolest, brightest and most exciting
chapter projects throughout the world. Trying to show the potential of what
chapters can do - not focussing on single projects, or even best practices, but
mainly on cool ideas and giving an overview of the chapter activities.
And to do that, I need your help! If you want me to include your chapter into
this overview, I would like to ask you to send me:
1) the names/topics of your top-3 (or less) projects which you were one way or
another (starting, finishing off) involved in since June 2010 (also possible to
send upcoming projects!)
2) a contact person which I can approach for more information
3) if available, a link to a project page
I don't ask you to write extensive descriptions, I just want to know what to
look for - if I have questions, I will come back to you. Please use the
following form to send me this
information: https://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?formkey=dDFIeFp5OHgtRXBmR0lhSXJlM2RORkE6MQ
Since I don't have influence on the duration of the slot I will get (I expect I
can easily fill 1,5 hour with this topic), I cannot guarantee that your topic
gets in, and I might merge activities of several chapters into one activity as
example.
Thanks a lot for your input, and please let me know if you have any questions.
If the for doesn't work for you, just email me directly.
Hoping for many very nice projects in the spreadsheet soon,
Lodewijk
ps: of course you are all welcome to join the session at Wikimania and see the
outcomes!
