Re: Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Wikimania 2006 [In reply to]

Kudos to you folks for thinking about it already.

I know it was probably a case of under-promise, over-deliver on
Jimbo's part, about not committing to a Wikimania next year. However,
for the attendees it seemed to be unthinkable not to have a Wikimania
2006. Too much fun, too many interesting people, and two years would
be too long.

I would highly recommend picking Delphine and akl's brain about it
while it's fresh.

Cheers,
