[Wikimediauk-l] Wikimania Bid
Heya guys. I managed to get the opportunity to send an email. I havnt been able to get to the bid page and am unsure whether I am going to be able to get access before the deadline so if people could look over the page once more and do what work they feel is needed. Can I also remind people about the irc meeting with the jurors on sunday at 2000 (that should include DST). A good turnout would be much appreciated. Any concerns that people have that I could answer before the meeting so that we are all on the same wavelength should be posted to this list.

We had a meeting about the bit on Tuesday - you were greatly missed! No-one knew quite where you had got to with accommodation - did you find a college (or colleges) with room for us? If not, we're going to have to claim that having a roof over delegates' heads is a minor issue that will be sorted out after the deadline! ___ Wikimedia UK mailing list wikimediau...@wikimedia.org http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org
[Wikimediauk-l] Phorm
Is there any way we can opt-out of this for uk.wikimedia.org? - Forwarded Message - From: Co-ordinating grassroots support for UK digital rights org-act...@lists.openrightsgroup.org To: org-act...@lists.openrightsgroup.org Sent: Friday, 27 March, 2009 17:00:11 GMT +00:00 GMT Britain, Ireland, Portugal Subject: [ORG-action] Block Phorm This week, we raised the pressure on Phorm, by asking major websites to block Phorm from intercepting their data. We’ve yet to have a firm decision from many of these sites – Facebook, MSN, Google, Youtube, AOL, Yahoo, Amazon and Ebay. But others, including several major sites, have already agreed to block Phorm. Find out more about this on the blog next week. Right now, we need to pile on the pressure. Once sites start blocking Phorm, more people will understand that the concerns are real, and Phorm can be stopped. == Take Action == 1 If you’re on Facebook, join the group: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=56045061126 2 Blog about it!

You would need server side access and even then you would run into issues with wikimedia foundation policy of allowing access as widely as possible. This is, indeed, something to be determined at the foundation level. They might be receptive - it's worth starting a discussion (perhaps on foundation-l). ___ Wikimedia UK mailing list wikimediau...@wikimedia.org http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org
