Wikimania
From Wikiversity
Welcome to Wikimania at Wikiversity! This is the place to coordinate Wikiversity's contributions to the Wikimania fray and is for "show and tell" about all things Wikimaniacal.
Wikimania 2007, the third annual international Wikimedia conference was held August 3-5 in Taipei, Taiwan. See Wikimania 2007.
Video Archives. Based on comments in Freenode IRC channel #wikimania, video archives of presentations made at Wikimania 2007 are being compiled. Wikimania 2008 will take place in Alexandria, Egypt.

This could include having online meetings - perhaps with the rationale of helping combat climate change by reducing the amount of people travelling the world in jet aircraft. (Have your say!)
[edit] An adventure
At Wikimania 2006 in Boston, Wikiversity was announced as the newest addition to the Wikimedia family of projects. Several learning projects and content development groups here at Wikiversity plan to participate in Wikimania:

- ...
