I appreciate the effort, but none of those rhymes work in my accent... ;) Congrats to the Haifa team, though! ___ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l

[Foundation-l] Wikimania 2011 announcement
Dear all, (I am really happy to send a message on a completely new topic :) ) The Wikimania jury has selected Haifa, Israel as the location for Wikimania 2011. The Haifa team presented a compelling, detailed bid[1] that the Wikimania jurors were very impressed by. As usual, all of the Wikimania bids had good points, and it was a very difficult decision. Detailed feedback will be sent to all bids. Public discussion of the bids and the Wikimania process is also welcome, and we know the winning team will appreciate the community's support and help in making a great Wikimania. We also apologize for the lateness of this announcement. We invested a lot of time in careful consideration of all points. I am happy to answer questions about the process. Congratulations to the Haifa team and many thanks to all of the bidders for working so hard. I personally encourage all bidders to use the energy that has been put into these bids by hosting smaller regional events, and considering another bid for Wikimania in the future.
