Congratulations to the London team, and to the Arusha team who also put forward a solid effort. We were concerned this year to see that both bidding teams put forward proposals which were costly and complicated, in contrast to the Wikimania tradition. The Jury briefly considered re-opening the bid for other teams, and asked both bids to present a simpler core budget and lower-cost options for attendees. The London team took our comments to heart and decreased their core budget to 20% of their initial proposal, and have committed to finding ways to reduce the cost for community attendees. We encourage future bidding teams to not give up their dreams, to keep aiming for the stars, but at the same time, to not forget the spirit of Wikimedia: a volunteer movement that makes creative use of limited resources. We look forward to the proposed Wikimania Committee setting out clearer guidelines on these principles. The process to bid for hosting Wikimania requires a substantial time investment, and we thank both candidate teams for their submissions and hard work.

Global Voices is a community of more than 1300 authors and translators in dozens of countries around the world that publishes reports from global citizen journalists, with an emphasis on voices that aren't ordinarily heard in major international media. “Global Voices does great work, and I’m really looking forward to sharing experiences and expertise with the people involved there.” said Sue Gardner, Executive Director of the Wikimedia Foundation. “The Wikimedia Foundation and Global Voices hold a lot of the same values, and for me the most important is our shared commitment to freedom of expression. The world needs strong voices advocating for internet users’ right to express themselves and to access information without impediment.” Congrats, Sue! :-) Global Voices is lucky to have you. Given the mention of global citizen journalists in the blog post, I was a little surprised to not see a mention of Wikinews. Some collaboration between the Wikinewsies and the Global Voices folks might be good to explore. (I'll admit that I'm still somewhat trying to wrap my head around what Global Voices exactly is, but a collaboration between the two seemed like it might have promise. If I'm off-base, ignore me.)
