Dear all,

On June 17th I posted the first draft of the schedule on this list (see:
http://wikimania2010.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Wikimania2010_-_ProgramSche
duleFirstDraft.pdf) - I am sorry if you have not noticed...
The new and slightly updated schedule can be found here:

0_-_ProgramScheduleSecondDraft.pdf.
We hope to publish the final schedule this weekend.

Best regards,
 Jacek Jankowski
 Wikimania2010 PC Chair

Subject: [Wikimania-l] Please: at least any schedule information is
needednow

*PLEASE*

Can you provide at least *ANY* information about the Wikimania  
schedule *NOW*?! At least when will the first session start and when  
will the last session end?

I am think am not the only one who is waiting since weeks to book  
flights and accommodation. Because of limited time and money I may  
need to arrive at Friday and/or leave at Sunday, so because lack of a  
schedule I still cannot say whether to come to Wikimania at all.  
Wikimania should start in two weeks?!

I still remember how I did the last schedule changes in the night  
before Wikimania 2005 and on schedule page  
http://wikimania2010.wikimedia.org/wiki/Schedule you see me changing  
the program of Wikimania 2007 during the event, so I really understand  
that sometimes its a always a bit chaotic and disorganized - but  
people need at least some *basic* information. The longer you wait the  
more people will cancel their participation.

It would be helpful at least to have *any* preliminary schedule  
instead of this intransparency and to have a tight date instead of  
"soon".

Sorry for pushing but it *is* urgent,
Jakob
