Can the list admin please disable digest mode? This is a very

This is a fantastic idea. Especially after Raphael and team's incredibly
successful Kumusha Bus in Ghana this past weekend. I'm told there is a
thriving open community in Ghana that's looking for more opportunities to
connect and grow!

Hi Kasper
In June, Wikimedia ZA held Wiki Indaba. It was for wikipedians from
Africa and wikipedians working on Africa from outside, as well as those
from the aligned movement across Africa. We had delegates from all over
Africa, including Cameroon, Côte d'Ivoire and Tunisia, and France.
Afripedia was invited, I know, because I made a special effort to make sure
they knew about it. I believe Florence also mentioned it to them. But there
was some change happening at Afripedia too.
I think another Wiki Indaba will definitely happen, but for when and
where you will have to check with Douglas at Wikimedia ZA the original
organizers (and aiming for Ghana for 2017 is a great idea, hopefully having
had others in 2015-6).
I really don't see any point in spitting the conference and having a
francophone one separate from the rest. It means we are going backwards,
but with Afripedia on board, perhaps the weighting of the conference can
become more balanced. You can find out more about the conference at
WikiIndaba.net ... And on meta:
http://meta.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Indaba
Most of the people on this list were at the last one.
Warmest
Isla
Isla on the move. Excuse the brevity.

Great!
I wanted to launch the idea for an African gathering in another
country (as suggested by Wikimedia ZA) but with a light management work.
what do you think?
During the Afripedia session this week the idea came up to organize
something like a Francophone Wikimania somewhere in Africa at some point
in the future.
