Who said it should be written off? I just think that if the bid is
developed by a professional with a big budget, rather than by actual
Wikimedians, that's an indication that (as Tom Morton suggested) there
isn't an active group of Wikimedians who support it. The bid evaluation
team should take that into account. It's perfectly possible, of course,
that the UK will mount a normal bid and be quite successful.
