Hi all, i'd be interested to attend. As I am
posted overseas at the moment,
might not be able to help much in terms of organizing it.
Cheers,
YK Tan

There are only a few of us on this list, so we

could make this happen in Singapore?
If you're interested in attending, could
you please fill in this form:

I'm trying to get a good estimate of the number of people interested -
three people have e-mailed me regarding this, so there is *some* interest.
Mohan, would you help Gaurav and Terence to find
a venue and structure
the event? It could be an informal barbeque party where Wikipedia
enthusiasts gather around to celebrate the anniversary of our
movement. Funds can be made available from the Wikimedia Foundation
through the grants process.[2]
Probably the best option for 5-20 people would be
Hackerspace.sg [1] -
they're usually pretty good about supporting open source/open content
groups. If there's fewer than five, we could just meet somewhere for coffee
and cake and reminisce :). If we're doing it at Hackerspace, I think we
should try getting it a bit more structured: there'll be other people
around, and we'd want to attract people to the cause.
Preetam (on-list) told me about a bar-owner in SG
making donations to
the Wikimedia Foundation based on the number of drinks sold.
Woah! Which is that?
Sounds awesome.
cheers,
Gaurav
