I will be there too. Thanks to the scholarship grant. Its great opportunity
for me to have a meet-up and learn from all of you again. It would be great
if we have a booth for Wikisource User group in the community village.

 Looking forward.

Thanks to the international Wikisource community for all your support and
inputs in the process of building the OCR4Wikisource tool. It was only
possible because this international community has valued "Language equity"
so passionately. Indic language Wikisourcers shall remain ever grateful to
all of you for your empathy and understanding. We are now trying to gather
data, make help pages in the form of manuals, videos etc., so that other
small Wikisource projects, facing similar problems, can benefit themselves.
For Esino, we are also planning to make a poster about the project to be
displayed in India booth.

Best Regards,

I'll be in Esino too. And we (=Wikimedia France) will maybe bring the book
scanner.

Of course I'll be there too.
An of course we should find a way, as always, to meet as wikisourcians in
Esino.
I'll be there, so at least there are 3 of us :-)

I think I'm not going to present anything this year: what I'll look into is
the perennial issue of lobbying/advocacy within the WMF. In Wien we said
all that was needed to say: unfortunately the recent turmoil at the WMF
made our request very low priority, but the WMConf in Berlin s a great
occasion to restart the conversation (and I'll try to do that).

Meanwhile, I encourage all of you to come up with ideas: for example, the
new Google OCR for Indic languages makes a perfect case of very good
innovation within our Wikisources, and maybe it would be very helpful, for
the community and for the WMF to understand, to gather data and show
numbers of what happened and is happening.
It would be amazing to show that users are increasing or such other
insights.

There is an example on the page linked ;)

My question is should we do one general poster about Wikisources or several
posters about specific Wikisources ? or maybe both is even better :D

> And shall we have a Wikisource meetup there?

We definitely should !

> I am going to try to get holidays to attend this year :)

I'll be in Esino too (thank to the WMF grant \o/ )

> Have a nice day!

You too.
