Re: [Wikimediach-l] Founding Assembly
Hello, I'm reading and replying to the emails in this moment because I've been very very busy in these last weeks. I've indicate my choices in the web page. Unfortunately the stressing time is not finished yet :( but my hope is to be present at first Assembly above all to know (face to face) all other members. For these reasons I've made a choice for a date in May and for Luzern, Olten or Zürich. April is impossible for me because I've a deadline in my job for 3 May.

I'd vote for a sooner date to have the Wikipedia Day OK together in personal. We enter a phase where I do not wish to work together with a public system and next syturday would be a good date to sit together. Foundation could happen just before the WPD06 meeting. I will show some milestones we should reach to get the day properly organized maybe later this day. We'll see about the food possibilities on WPD06 by then.

Re: [Wikimediach-l] Founding Assembly
hi, i also favor a later date. as you say, it does not make sense to do multiple things at a time. and i have a strong feeling that some people are occupied with wikipedia day. == reason "we can talk about wikipedia day at the founding assembly": if we have to talk about wikimedia day, we should do that, immediately, without fixing the bylaws before. online, or a real life meeting. if we want to have a founding assembly we should have a founding assembly. == reason "we should not do wikipedia day and founding assembly together" i agree. even if i prefer it to have at wikipedia day, than now. in general, to announce a founding assembly with a few days notice with errenous bylaws is not the best thing i guess. currently the english version is somehow broken, the german version a little, and the french version i cannot judge. -rupert.

All your reasons for having a founding assembly in the near future are fair enough, and as I wrote, all my favourite dates are after 17 June, so there is not much I can add to the list of dates... > And: There's no problem, when you can't attend the founding assembly.

The changes are probably easily done; I am more worried about the proofreading, since none has been done of the French text yet.

Well, there are two reasons why I'm hurrying with the date: - first of all I already stated the dates over a week ago when the approval became known to us - we have much things to talk about concerning Wikipedia Day, press and Website (all affecting the others). Because of Wikipedia Day this should be done soon. - There may be the idea of doing the founding assembly at Wikipedia Day, which is no good idea for me: As stated above the founding assembly should also be an assembly where we can do and decide many things. Wikipedia Day itself should also be a marketing event for us. So we can't do both in parallel. We should first put all effort in our founding and future planning and then later put all effort in our visitors and the press at Wikipedia Day. Last but nor least the dates were proposals only. Feel free to add your favourite one. And: There's no problem, when you can't attend the founding assembly. If you declare your support and membership we will be able to vote for you and you'll become member of Wikimedia CH right away. > As Michael mentioned in an email a few days ago, we probably need one > round of final proofreading before the assembly, to make sure that all > the versions are coherent and that all these changes have been made in > all versions. I already put this on the TODO list... http://ch.wikimedia.org/wiki/To_do As we have one of each native speakers here it would be just a little job to adopt this changes in any language. I agree with you, that this has to be done before the founding assembly. We could have done this already...

As indicated by private email to Michael and Napa, I will be extremely busy until Wikipedia day (which means also that I won't be able to participate in any way to this event). I will thus not indicate any preference for the date (all my week-ends are fully booked...), nor the location, obviously. However, I will mention that the proposal I have seen for next week-end seems a bit too soon to me: I don't think the French bylaws have been proofread (or even read); there has been some modifications to the English bylaws following their examination by the Wikimedia Foundation, and some modifications to the German version following my comments about par. 10.3 (I think). As Michael mentioned in an email a few days ago, we probably need one round of final proofreading before the assembly, to make sure that all the versions are coherent and that all these changes have been made in all versions.
