Second Wikimania day.
The keynote by Jimmy Wales today morning was simply great. The best call for participation for the strategic planning process I had ever anticipated.
I missed the panel led by Andrew Lih because I had at the same time a talk by myself.
The sessions after the lunch break got really really good.
I visited the talks from Chitu Okoli and Mako about researches on Wikipedia. We need such researches, I am surprised that there are indeed some of them out there. Their results are very fascinating and helpful.
After that two tech talks about usability from Naoko and Angela. Really great. There was after the talk a very lively discussion about all aspects of usability. The developers made life sneak previews about features they are working on. There are inputs from other projects that use MediaWiki, comparisons with different solutions. What I found really good is the improvement on talk pages that should be released soon on the trial version. Really cool. A very very huge thank you very much to all developers that are involved and the whole usability team.
