Hi Harry & all, The Wikimania organisers are super-quick at replying to emails. :-) We'll be awarding scholarships for Wikimania 2012 via the main scholarships program - so please apply there, making sure you tick that 'yes' option at the end of the form: http://wikimania2012.wikimedia.org/wiki/Scholarships
So that you can judge your odds of success: we'll be providing up to £5,000 worth of scholarships for UK individuals via a mix of full- and partial-scholarships.
