Hi Phoebe,
The short answer is yes, we are interested in doing a botanical edit-a-thon
but it is looking increasingly unlikely. :-(
Rossouw has been trying to organise a Wikimania edit-a-thon with the South
African National Botanical (SANBI) society (the people that run
Kirstenbosch) for some time now. They have indicated their interest to us
in doing some thing but have been very elusive over the past few months.
As such we have swiched focus to doing a Water Sustainability edit-a-thon
instead but if SANBI gets back to us we are still very happy to include
them in any edit-a-thon we organise.
Regards,
Douglas.

The short answer is yes, we are interested in doing a botanical edit-a-thon
but it is looking increasingly unlikely. :-(
Rossouw has been trying to organise a Wikimania edit-a-thon with the South
African National Botanical (SANBI) society (the people that run
Kirstenbosch) for some time now. They have indicated their interest to us
in doing some thing but have been very elusive over the past few months.
As such we have swiched focus to doing a Water Sustainability edit-a-thon
instead but if SANBI gets back to us we are still very happy to include
them in any edit-a-thon we organise.

Douglas.
