Hello! This is a reminder that 10 days from now (9 February) is the deadline for volunteers requesting a scholarship or visa and WMF staff to register for the Wikimedia Hackathon 2020 in Tirana. After that point the decision committees will begin work and we will not be able to accept any more applications so please make sure to register before then if you have an interest in attending. For those self-funding to attend this event, registration will remain open.
Again, please help make sure this is passed around to the relevant mailing lists. :) Thanks! We are here to help or answer questions that you may have.
