Dear all:

We have just heard from the organisers of the World Sanskrit Book Fair in Bangalore a few hours back, that they are willing to offer us a free stall for wikipedia. As you may be aware we have a wikipedia in Sanskrit and this presents a good opportunity to spread awareness amongs folks interested in Sanskrit and the general public.

There are 10,000 delegates from India and many countries around the world. Around 60,000 people (general public) are expected to attend the event. It is being inaugurated by the Chief Minister of Karnataka tomorrow.
