Something confirmed about the candidates to host Wikimania 2013?
I've heard rumors about Kenya, U.K. and Portugal...

Subject: [Wikimania-l] <-- WikiDragon alert
Hello all,
I'm probably not the only one starting to think ahead to Wikimania 2013. So
today, I did a rather massive overhaul of the Wikimania pages on Meta -- trying
to both wrap my head around the event's history, the process of venue
selection, and existing documentation -- and also trying to organize it in a
way that will make it more accessible as other try to educate themselves.
I sort of wish I'd taken a screenshot or two of the Category structure before I
started, because to be blunt, it was *awful*! I hope what I've left behind is
an improvement. If you want to take a look at the havoc I've wreaked, you
should probably look at:
http://enwp.org/meta:Wikimaniahttp://enwp.org/meta:Category:Wikimaniahttp://enwp.org/meta:Wikimania_jury
Or just pore over my (metaphorically) OCD-fueled recent contribs:

I hope this is viewed as a net positive. In hindsight, as I was getting deeper
into this, I started to realize that I maybe should have stopped to seek
consensus before making such extensive changes. But I am pretty confident
you'll like what you see -- if not, please let me know, and I'll do my best to
undo any damage :)
-Pete
