Discussion

Thank you Greg for your application. I have let the Grants Committee know and they will offer any comments they may have soon. Regards -- Katie Chan (WMUK) (talk) 14:18, 28 November 2013 (UTC)

Sounds ok. That's some expensive biscuits though - could Daria comment on that? Do we have any sort of draft programme? Johnbod (talk) 04:05, 29 November 2013 (UTC)

If it includes lunch, then that's reasonable - you can see their external catering prices here (I'd hope this event would get a discount though). Worth noting the venue cost seems to be waived, which is good news.

What I'd be a little more concerned about is the benefit for open knowledge movement and Wikimedia UK - the first two points of the outcomes focus much more on solely promoting University's initiatives ("Fulfil the CMC remit as a notable event in the academic calendar; Fulfil goal of contributing to launch of Digital Humanities research initiative in SAH as a means to forming a research network in Digital Humanities across Scoottish universities").
