Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Wikimania Bid - Local Team

2009-04-04 Thread Virgin, Steve

I am a global media anaysis consultant for dow jones. Working with top lline 
global clients. Am keen to help the wiki team both as a team member and as a 
contact outside who may be able to introduce the team to potential sponsors. Am 
currently trying to set up a chat with klm on this subject and have interest 
internally inside dow jones as a potential sponsor. 

I am working on developing both opportunities and will report back if 
successful. 

I have a cv style profile on linked in. Feel free to use my work experience in 
any way you wish to develop and raise the chances of success for the oxford 
bid. 

Best to the team

Steve

It would also be good if those of us who are listed as the local team
could note our relevant experience.  Of course, people can still be
part of team without any relevant experience, but if members of the
team have organised events, negotiated contracts, worked on publicity
or technical set-up, etc, I'm sure the panel will be very keen to

It might be a good idea to contact everybody on the list, and ask 
them such questions. The sign page could be archived, and replaced 
with a time based plan of commitment, for example.

There are many phases of this project, and many skills that would 
help. And also, as with anything, just people required to do stuff...


Bid, get the bid, plan, plan, plan some more, execute (drink beer 
here) and after care.

Could you define local team a bit better? I'm in the UK, and in fact
I'll be at Oxford University from October (assuming I don't utterly
mess up my exams) so I intend to volunteer for physical assistance at
the actual conference should the bid be successful. But I'm not sure
if this is precisely what you mean by local team since I'm not there
yet and haven't been properly involved in the bid thus far.

2009-04-02 Thread joseph seddon

Following the IRC meeting, it was recommended by the Jury that we try and 
differentiate between our supporters and the local team of volunteers. I know 
that many people have offered thier assistance and are willing volunteer but we 
need to make it clear how many volunteers there are. 

 

If you will be willing to Volunteer in some way please indicate here 
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2010/Bids/Oxford/Team.

 

Many Thanks
