Works great for me, James -- glad for the update, and I personally think
that at this point, almost any clear path forward is better than continuing

Good luck getting through the RL work too!

Let us hope that the left wing bias and the feminist hate movement will be
excluded. I have great doubts as they have already corrupted endless
entries on the site, beyond repair. Manipulating it with their
doctrinal bias and misinformation to such as degree as to make the entire

well, who is selecting the jury?
So far as I know this is a community process, so everyone with a plan

I am hesitant because James

Nah, lets not wind ourselves up unnecessarily. There is still plenty of
time - as long as the winners are known around june/july. A full year
should be enough to organize a Wikimania.

Hi WSC,
I doubt that the moment that people start requesting visa for 2013 will be

Dear all,
It's getting towards the end of November, which means it is time to
run the Wikimania bidding process for 2013[0].
Given the traditional absence of a formal system, I'm putting myself

In the past years I have seen a lot of people spend a lot of time on different
bids which never made it (even though they were pretty good). Could this be the
