[Foundation-l] Wikimedia Community Day in Berlin

On June 13, 2004 - one day after the "Wikipedia and Friends" panel at the  
Wizards of OS conference, see http://www.wizards-of-os.org - there will be  
a Wikipedia/Wikimedia community meeting in Room H2033 of the Technical  
University Berlin (main building at Ernst-Reuter-Platz/Straße des 17.  
Juni). See

http://www.tu-berlin.de/eng/about_tu/anreise.htm

for more information on how to get there. There are over 60 seats.

This will be an opportunity to meet Wikipedians from Germany, Europe, the  
United States and elsewhere, including Jimmy Wales. It will also give us  
eight hours or more to discuss issues of importance to Wikipedia and the  
Wikimedia Foundation.

One primary concern for the German Wikipedians is the setup of a German  
daughter organization of the Wikimedia Foundation, Inc. The formalities of  
this process will be discussed.

The results of the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees election, closed  
on Saturday, will be officially announced. The meeting can also be used to  
discuss Wikipedia's internal policies, those of our sister projects like  
Wikibooks and Wiktionary, possible future projects for the Wikimedia  
Foundation, effective fundraising, quality control mechanisms, and the  
print edition.

A tentative agenda is being developed at
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Community_Day

This page will be translated into English as soon as it has reached a  
stable state. If you don't speak German you can already register yourself  
and suggest issues to discuss on the talk page ("Diskussion" link). If  
there's enough international interest we can move the whole thing to Meta  
and continue to develop it there.

I'm looking forward to meeting everyone who will come.

Regards,

Erik
