Dear all,

Early registration for Wikimania ends today; after which the community
rate for the conference tickets will go up.  The preliminary program

Scholarship applications are being reviewed and responded to over the
next two days.

Other notes related to the conference schedule : There will be some
outings on Thursday, before Wikimania begins.  SIGGRAPH is taking
place in Boston before Wikimania, during Hacking Days (Tuesday through
Thursday); we're trying to arrange a tour of their exhibit floor.  A
Citizen Journalism event in the same building on Monday, the day after
Wikimania ends :

Finally, don't forget the Wikimania awards  -- a t-shirt contest, and
a media and writing contest.  Nominations of great media (any free
format) and writing (any language) are wanted; more information to
come :

Warmly,
