Example: "Wikimania 2018 will be happening in Cape Town, South Africa. Don't miss out on this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to attend in your backyard. Apply for a scholarship now".
Start the process of getting those banners up in South Africa
Bobby has contacted David about the scholarship process, he's happy to be involved but is busy
David to send out banner. Dumi to be removed as bank account signatory, Bobby to follow up with the bank and get proof for WMF.
Deon is available as a backup signatory, but not to be added yet.
List of directors at CPC(?) needs to be updated, only Bobby, Dumi, and Douglas are listed
We tried to do this years ago, very tedious process and got nowhere Radio Sonder Grense has invited Deon to Woordefees to give a live interview in early March
Does Wikimedia ZA have funds to fly him down, or is there someone in Cape Town?
There is a TPS grant application process from WMF. But the approval process may take a month.
Marula Media is interested in covering Wikimania, will contact Deon with questions. We have a data contract lying unused, if anyone needs this for Wikimania purposes, ask Raymond Bobby trip to Zambia, collaboration with the Swedish embassy - Discussed at last meeting
