(I should add -- also there would be complications if somehow lots of Wikimedia people get their talks accepted and I can't budget to subsidize all of them, or you can't get a visa to the US in time, or some unforeseen thing comes up like that. But I don't predict those problems happening.) -- Sumana Harihareswara Volunteer Development Coordinator Wikimedia Foundation _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
