Re-hi all.

i just wanted to chip in a few cheerful ideas in this whole thing.

As you're building the bid for your country/city, remember that there
are no problems, there are only solutions (it's a French saying).

Accomodation too expensive? Let us find sponsors.

No network in the facility? Let us build one.

Airport is really far away? Let us rent buses and do shuttles.

No real local community in that city of yours? Time to build one
around Wikimania.

No local sponsors? There's always someone who will pay for lunch for
one day, or for promotion material to have their name on the website,
or throw in a party for a few hundred wikimedians.

Unanswerable technical and logistical questions? Try us, we've done it before.

Come on, BE BOLD!
