I am delighted by the vote of confidence, but I don't think I can fairly
call the BL small by any use of the word ;-) I haven't seen our current
exhibition yet (only opened yesterday, and I was out of town) but I don't
think it has a significant digital component, unlike the previous one.
Definitely agree on visiting TNA at Kew, but note that Jo is now in York a
lot of the time.
Zeyi - do you know when your friend is going to be around?

Zeyi,
From my perspective, the best person to visit would be Andrew Gray at the
British Library. He's the official Wikipedian in Residence there and is,
frankly, excellent. He might have time for coffee and a chat - likewise,
your engineer friend could visit the UK Chapter office in central London,
next to Old Street station, and have a chat with the staff.

Hi Zeyi,
if she or he lands at Heathrow then go to the museum at the National
Archives which is very close. They were the first to use QRpedia in London
I think and they have worked with WMUK releasing images as well as hosting
hack days. and they have a self appointed wiki in residense (Jo Pugh).
They have also talked about releasing other works to wikisource.
I'd be pleased to help if needed and we have other examples outside
London.
