You may have to wait a little after we win the bid in order to get confirmed sponsorships - CC will almost certainly want written confirmation (unconditionally, that is - what we have at the moment is all conditional on us winning the bid). If the current board has time to do it, starting work on the CC application now wouldn't hurt. _______________________________________________ Wikimedia UK mailing list [email protected] http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org
