Congratulations! I know that I grilled you with many questions during the bidding process, but that's because I thought your bid was very strong and wanted to make sure you thought about various details. I was satisfied with the answer regarding the venue space, especially the idea of having outdoor space as social space.
There were pros and cons of all of the bids and I think any of the bid options would have worked just fine. The Poland location is a good opportunity for outreach to Eastern European Wikipedians and seems not so far from Germany (Berlin), Denmark, Sweden, and other places. -Aude On Thu, May 7, 2009 at 5:24 AM, Tomasz Ganicz <polime...@gmail.com> wrote: > 2009/5/7 Dedalus <deda...@wikipedia.be>: > > Congratulations to the Poland team for winning the Wikimania 2010 bid! > > > > Thank you :-) Actually we are all very happy but also shocked in > Poland.
