My suggestion is for some coordinated session between SOTM/Wikimania .. perhaps a live stream of a presentation on the OSM maps in Wikipedia from Wikimania to SOTM?

Reasons: - It's the same weekend as this year (and last year) - The week before the weekend, the Girona University already had a series of summer-OS GIS-workshops planned. To give attendees the possibility to also go to these workshops, was a strong reason to stick with the dates. I can understand you would have to choose for Wikimania. Maybe next year we should compare dates with both conferences before we both decide on dates.
