I'm quite happy to see if they can point me at a relevant law or know of an example of good custom and practise. I didn't say WMUK and you haven't asked WMUK... what does WMUK have to do with it?

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] So who knows about their local wifi?
I recall a friend (who knows stuff) ran an open wifi network at home, in a house that stood in a field in the countryside. I said, what is your security? He replied: my dog - it barks if anybody gets close enough to see the wifi signal. Case closed, m'lud?

Gordon came up with a good list of what is available - one it does not include is the Google tool - does anyone have user knowledge of it?

[Wikimediauk-l] Wikimania 2013 - winner announced
Members of this list might be interested to know that Wikimania 2013 will be held in Hong Kong. I'm sure I can speak for everyone when I say congratulations to Hong Kong, and heartfelt commiserations to the London team, who have put a great deal of effort into the bid.
