I think once you've written a report it isn't too difficult to go through it and redact the very few things that can't be made public (it's not trivial, of course, but it's not too difficult). It's writing the thing in the first place that is hard work. Anyway, the redaction comes at the end, so if that bit ends up not getting done then you've still got the un-redacted version for those that really need it. If there isn't a public version, though, I think it is essential that bid teams are given access to the private one - once the bid is finished, it may well be too late to fix some problems that previous teams have learnt from. _______________________________________________ Wikimania-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimania-l
