As the local team pretty understands everyone's anticipation to the conference so we will try to keep you informed about the latest update of the conferencewhenever they can be release to the public Here are a few piece of info I think you will be interested to know a. Hostel accommodationOne thing I am sorry to tell you that, the dorm of PolyU is not available due to renovation in this summer.So we have arrange the dorm of another university in Kowloon, Baptist University for scholarship recipients (whether WMF or Chapter scholarship) However, the BU dorm is not in the walking distance to PolyU,but it is still in a very convenient location, just two MTR stations away from PolyUand we will also arrange shuttle in the morning, to getting most people to the venue. We estimate there are still a number of beds that can be available as hostel options,so the local team will start accepting reservation for these extra bedswhen the scholarship recipients start getting letter of notifications. We will only accept those reservation request from those who are not supported by any scholarship or any Wikimedia entities,and also we may consider reserving some beds for Wikipedians/wikimedians only For the location of the new dorm, you may visit this website: http://sa.hkbu.edu.hk/ugh/hallmap.htmlMore information will be available in the official wiki b. PartiesWe are basically settled on the choice of venue for both welcoming parties and closing partieshowever we cannot reveal too much, either we are still negotiation, or revealing may lead to some extra cost. For the opening party, please pray for a good weather, as you can enjoy the famous harbour view from the venue. and for the closing party, considering some feedbacks we will switch to a Beach party, rather than Beach barbecue the location is also different from the one we stated in the bidhowever, you can still experience the different landscape of Hong Kong (suppose you never see or even expect) If you have any questions, please feel free to keep asking in the current available meanslike here, or the wiki page, we may try to be active on IRC, but due to the time difference.... we cannot be always online while you're online lOOking forward to seeing you here in August -- Jeromy-Yu "Jerry" Chan, ARADUser:Yuyu | zh.wikipedia Advisor, Wikimedia Hong Kong ChapCom/ComCom, Wikimedia Foundation Coordinator-in-Chief, Wikimania 2013 also Jeromyu on twitter, plurk and most of places http://plasticnews.wf| http://about.me/jeromyu Tel (Mobile): +852 9279 1601 Lend us a simple edit, you're a Wikipedian! _______________________________________________ Wikimania-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimania-l
