TikiFestBerlin2010

A tradition in the Tiki community, a TikiFest is a meeting between Tiki community members (that usually only meet online). This is an opportunity to socialize, code and discuss about wiki technology and culture, etc.

First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin

When

12.—14. November 2010

Shortly after, there is the Translating and the Computer 32 Conference, 18-19 November 2010 in London

What

DokuWiki has a base in Berlin, too. So we could have a 2-3 days of parallel DokuWiki & TikiWiki event (and perhaps MediaWiki, TWiki, etc) and one day (perhaps the last) could be a more general "wiki day".
