[Wikinews-l] Wikinews events at Wikimania

Fri Jul 28 00:14:35 UTC 2006

There will at least be two relevant events for Wikinewsies at or
around Wikimania:

* An open discussion about Wikinews and wikis in journalism on
Saturday, 4:00-5:30 PM:

* A whole mini-conference about citizen journalism on Monday:

If you plan to attend, please add yourself to the list (registration
is mandatory for the citizen journalism conference). If you can't
attend, please edit

http://wikimania2006.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikis_and_the_news

and add topics that you think the Wikinewsies who will be present
should discuss. If possible, we will also try to assign one or
multiple people for reporting the discussion to #wikinews on
irc.freenode.net, and to take questions and comments from the channel.

I hope to see you there,

Erik
