Wikimania 2006 was a major social event and a general success. This week, we have a few post-conference links and notes. If you want to work on a bid for a city near you to play host to Wikimania in 2007 or 2008, see the information on Wikimania bids on meta.
During Wikimania, coverage was provided by a number of attendees on the on-wiki Wikimania blog. A few roving reporters took notes on the event, and collected their observations into text and posts. A professional photographer and many amateur photographers were present; see the photo collections on Flickr and the Wikimedia Commons.
Audio and video streams of Wikimania sessions may be found at the Wikimania 2006 archives. Full text of presentations and slides are also being added to the proceedings.
Comments on presentations are still welcome on discussion pages, and some presenters are themselves still watching that space for input. If you have your own recordings or transcripts of a session, please link to it from that event's discussion page.
A great deal of feedback was received from presenters and attendees; more would be welcome from participants who were watching and taking part from afar. Please leave your feedback, comments, and suggestions for next year here. Feedback is extremely useful in helping make next year's conference better.
Planning is already underway for Wikimania 2007. The conference location will be chosen via bid; the bidding process is described on the Wikimania 2007 page. The successful bid will host the 2007 conference and have a chance to make it the best Wikimania yet.
