It somehow befell me to organise a meetup of Melbourne-based Wikipedia contributors with Jimmy Wales when he's in town tomorrow. As Jimbo is booked heavily all day, it has to be an early breakfast, so I'll need to drag myself up at some unconscionable hour in the morning to meet him at his hotel in the city and kinda escort him to The Blue Train.
Actually, I'm looking forward to it. He seems like a nice guy, and it'll be good to meet him in person. I'll report back after the event.
Damn. Wish I was in Melbourne... stupid brisvegas...
