Hi,
I'm co-organising an event on wikis in Montréal on 18-19-20th may 2007.
http://www.rocococamp.info/
It's the third edition of the RecentChangesCamp, which took place twice
in Portland Oregon.
The Montréal (bilingual) edition has been untitled Rococo.
(Rencontre sur la Collaboration, la Créativité et l'Autogestion =
Meetings on Collaboration, Creativity and SelfManagement).
Wikis will be central, but the event is also gathering people
interested in collaboration practices at large (researchers, artiste,
video, geeks...)

It's a BarCamp (don't know if you are familiar with it if not, see
http://barcamp.org/) organised with the OpenSpace Technology
(methodology that help having a
User Generated Conference).
We are waiting for people from different background, some have been
using and stuying Wikis in education(1).

A bar camp allows participants to suggest their own session,  so we
could have one or more session on wiki in education. 
I'm personnaly interested in this subject.
The 2 past RCC meetings allowed us to create 6 communities on the
web...so you could also take this as a possibility to get on
practice/knowledge communities.

(1) see for exemple :
 - http://www.rocococamp.info/StewartMader author of Using Wiki in
Education http://www.ikiw.org/
 - http://www.rocococamp.info/Alain_Désilets (wikis in primary school)
 - http://www.rocococamp.info/PierreLeonardHarvey (wikis in
distance-teaching)

Everybody with an interest in the field is welcome.
+ it's free.

If you want to participate, write your name on the list

ps : // Drupal 
Koumbit is one organisation that is going to participate to this
event. http://koumbit.org/
This OBNL is specialised with Drupal and has organised several Drupal
meet up. http://groups.drupal.org/montreal-quebec
They also have some contracts on Drupal for education, so you might have
some interesting exchange with them.
