Hello Mr. Walsh, I shall be asking a few questions in elaborating the information in this email. would a member of the short speaker's list be performing public speaking? Regarding the sentence "off-list, your subject-area interest, speaking background (if any) and your rough availability (flexible, only able to speak in city/region X etc).", would you mind explain more on it? Just as an example, would that suggest a French-speaking historian in Toronto performing public speaking?

I'm in the process of developing a short speaker's list to manage the daily requests that come in for skilled speakers on all things Wiki. I think we have something on meta with this information, but in the interest of being current (and me being still kinda new) please feel free to send me, off-list, your subject-area interest, speaking background (if any) and your rough availability (flexible, only able to speak in city/region X etc). Appreciate your help - looking forward to hearing from you. -- Jay Walsh Head of Communications WikimediaFoundation.org +1 (415) 839 6885 x 609 _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-ca mailing list Wikimedia-ca(a)lists.wikimedia.org <mailto:Wikimedia-ca@lists.wikimedia.org> https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-ca
