I have 4979,24 CZK left, which is about 219,92 USD.

Anything else

I haven't been to Wikimania for a while, my last participation was in Haifa in 2011. Meeting with the international community in Stockholm showed me that the community goals have shifted, thus I am changing my events. I take from Wikimania the strength is on participation, so my future projects will try to attract more participants. For example, I am planning to merge off-wiki communities with wiki communities. There are a lot of plans, but unfortunately no time and financial scarcity. But even its hard, I am slowly working on it, e. g. with the mushroom community, I build on Facebook we are already working on fungi identification on Wikimedia Commons. In the plan are the competitions of some Facebook communities on Wikimedia Commons or Wikipedia.
