My huge commendation to Jon and Phoebe for putting together an awesome little space for WP at this year's Maker Faire. Wish we could have done more, but in a sense it makes so much sense to see our volunteers building a volunteer space at a volunteer-oriented making event like Maker Faire. It's a real one of a kind.
And of course big props to all the volunteers who got to come out and join in the outreach efforts. Here's to many more (funnelcakes) and makerfaires! -- Jay Walsh Head of Communications WikimediaFoundation.org blog.wikimedia.org +1 (415) 839 6885 x 609, @jansonw On May 28, 2009, at 4:10 PM, phoebe ayers wrote: > Trying to answer everything, & changing subject lines: > > On the weekend proper, volunteers please check in at the Maker > check-in booth, as explained here: > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/San_Francisco/Maker_Faire#How_to_check_in > > On Friday, load-in info is here: > http://cdn.oreilly.com/make/makerfaire/ba09/MF09_BA_Maker_Manual.pdf > It says to come to gate CC; "security will issue a Temporary Vehicle > Entry Permit to all vehicles entering the grounds.
