Aw, shoot. I’ve heard those are a lot of fun! I’m hoping to be released from my PhD and able to attend WikiConference USA 2017, so maybe I’ll see you there instead! > I think the candidates should describe their involvement, goals and plans in > a few paragraphs, and we should go from there. Sounds good to me! Whoever wants to go first should set up a subpage at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedians_of_Colorado_User_Group so this isn’t just happening on the mailing list. Should we set January 6 as a deadline to have these in? Judging these entries will also be tricky. I can volunteer to judge them, but I wouldn’t want to be the ONLY judge, so if nobody else volunteers to judge, we might end up randomly choosing an entry after all. But I like the idea of candidates having to set out why they’d like to go, what they’ll do in Berlin and how that will benefit WM-US-CO. cheers, Gaurav > Cheers, > > -Neal > > On Sat, Dec 31, 2016 at 03:24:55PM -0500, Gaurav Vaidya wrote: >> Okay, yay, two candidates!
