The morning after the AGM has the most yes's, but the morning of the 27th has the most yes's and (yes)'s. There are a lot of people that have expressed an interest in going that haven't voted yet, so I'd like to give it another 24 hours before we make a final decision. I just put every weekend this month (apart from this one) up there. I know there are clashes (I included the afternoon after the AGM, which clases with a London meetup, so Liverpool, Monmouth and Cambridge shouldn't feel that I'm discriminating against them), but I thought it best to just a wide choice and see what works best for people. > Being Coventry-based, travelling to one end of the country (Liverpool) and > travelling to the other end (London) the next day isn't a prospect that > fills me with joy.

Yes, it does make sense, but there are already 5 people on the talk page on wiki apologising that they can't make that day and 2 people that have posted as attending but have said they would much rather it was on a different day. > Whatever the date, there are options other than attending in person - I'd be > quite happy for a handful of people to participate via Skype, any action > points/decisions will be posted on the UK chapter wiki, and WMUK has the > technology to webcast it live if there's demand. Yes, we should try and include people by remote as much as possible. _______________________________________________ Wikimedia UK mailing list wikimediau...@wikimedia.org http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org
