The Public Records office of Victoria (the State Government's official
record repository) has a MediaWiki installation for the purposes of:
[to] offer you the opportunity to contribute your knowledge of, and
we've said that we're requesting a spot for the Prez, and that in the event
that there is funding and all the stars align then we'd like to send the
Vice Prez too. There is discussion about whether 1 or 2 people from the
various chapters will be going but I think it unlikely given the costs -
Oh I hate this stuff
According to the reading by the Copyright Council of Australia (who are the
most conservative in these matters) the rules are that the image is PD if
the photographer *died* before 1955 - not whether the photograph was

Briefly,
This is still on the boil but they're still having internal
discussions at the powerhouse. The proposed date now is the first
Friday of march- the 5th (from memory).
So, keep adding people to the list on WM-au-officialwiki and once we
have a firm date and an official greenlight
we would need to look at how
to ingest the data.
I would add a 4th concern, and I'm not sure if this is a big problem or
easily fixed, is that most of the pictures on Commons are not relevant to
PA. Would we be able to provide a feed of only the relevant categories?

Hi, I was happily surprised to spot this article in the Age's Green

How can we attract people who
don't usually come to meetups? I expect embarrassingly few will turn
up if we can't do this.
Yes, my concern too. Thoughts on how to increase turn-out:

Yes. And, I really don't think we'll have too much trouble filling 20 spots
for this event.
So, the roll-out plan seems to be (correct me if I'm wrong):
1) People who are WM-AU members sign up to the list on WM-AU wiki noting
their preferred dates. I've already added a couple of other names that

Hi all,
please see below for a snippet of high drama from the Sydney meetup of
yesterday's AGM - not sure if this sort of thing is worthy of official wiki
inclusion, but may transfer it to OGG in due
, and a simple word from you folks could push them into positive
territory.
Thanks for your consideration,

Hi guys, unfortunately I think I might need to send apologies for
this meeting as well. I have an appointment at 2pm and I don't

get home in time,
I wrote a little note in their feedback form the other day to say
that I/we had noticed the announcement and were looking forward to
it. I gave a link to this mailing list thread.
Hopefully someone at the ABS who is net-savvy will read that piece of
feedback and reply to us - it does say
I don't speak for WM-Au but I suppose it would be good if those who
went to speak at schools were:
a) paid-up members of the chapter (which reminds me - I must actually
send my money...)
b) had proof of criminal records check by whichever means is
appropriate e.g. official school visitation
