Dear MCGers, and especially those of you in or near London.
This August Wikimedia's annual global conference Wikimania will be coming
to London <https://wikimania2014.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page>, the first
time it has been in Europe for four years.
We will be in the Barbican centre in London from the 8th to the 10th August.
Wikimania covers Wikipedia, our media library Wikimedia commons and other
issues relating to the global Wikimedia movement.
Submissions can be made here.
<https://wikimania2014.wikimedia.org/wiki/Submissions>
Tracks that I hope will be of most relevance to people on this list include:

Museum collaborations with
Wikimedia.<https://wikimania2014.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:GLAM_%26_Free_Culture_submissions>
And of course Legal & Free
Culture<https://wikimania2014.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Legal_%26_Free_Culture_submissions>which
might be of interest to those you who are interested in sharing free
content creative commons licenses and the opportunities that creates for
collaborations.
