Subject: Pragyaan 12 - NIT Trichy
To: Swaroop Rao <

Forward this to the list and the Chapter, we need a plan ASAP.
I spoke to Saagar today.
Here are the main issues:
Plan: We need a plan of action, and we need it fast.
I was asked if this was a contest or a workshop, to which I stated that it was a Workshop.
Here are the key points we discussed:
1> Date/Day/Schedule: The event is spread over four days, and is jam packed. We need to schedule it properly, and get a follow up mechanism in place.
2> ISO certification: Pragyaan is the fourth Technical fest in India to get ISO certification. Because of this, the organisers, have to sign an MoU with the organiser/promoter of each individual event. I believe the chapter needs to do something about this. The main purpose of this is to show that the event is taking place and to promote it.
3> Swags: I was suggested that we have a small trivia session thru the session and give out same Laptop stickers/tees/etc.
4> Accommodation: This is really tight. We need to inform the number of participants beforehand to make sure that we can get accommodation.
I know Bala won't be able to make it. What about other Community members - Chennai, Coimbatore, Salem, Bangalore, Kerala?
Do remember, this is NIT Trichy. A BIG event. I believe Tinu and Logic had done something at NITT earlier. Hoping that they would do it this time as well.
Hoping for a response soon.
