Sorry, I've just re-read this email again and realised it sounds very bossy. I didn't really mean it to ;-)
We're fairly well set up for the fundraiser, but input from the community would still be really useful. There are some things which past experience shows can't really be crowdsourced even for a Wikimedia fundraiser, but there are other things which definitely can. So if you're interested in helping raise £1,000,000 for the Wikimedia movement this Autumn, please do have a look at the list of ways to get involved and see which of them takes your fancy. :-D (I've also put a readiness & risk report on the Fundraiser on my report for Tuesday's board meeting, which you can see here; http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/Reports_11Oct11#Chris_Keating_.28Director.29) Chris On Sat, Oct 8, 2011 at 11:52 AM, Chris Keating <[email protected]>wrote: > I've just updated the Wiki with some details about this Autumn's > fundraiser, which is just a few short weeks away... > > http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/2011_Fundraiser > > In particular there are 5 ways YOU can help.
