Hello everyone, On 24th January 2012, a small meetup was organized in L.D. College of Engineering Ahmedabad, I thank Kothari Harsh and Shah Smit from the college to organize this on such short notice (less than 24 hours). After the successful photo walk and a small Wiki 11 celebration, I thought this would help out in sustaining a community there too. The meetup was attended by 7 people in total, I gave them a small presentation of Wikipedia and idea of how exactly the community works and what does a community do. I also shared my experiences as a CA in IEP and as an editor on EN and GU WP too for past 1 year. After the presentation we had a good discussion on how they can help building a strong community from Gujarat, Kartik Mistry shared his experiences of working collaboratively in FOSS and Debian Community. He blogged <http://kartikm.wordpress.com/2012/01/25/meeting-with-arnav/>about this meetup too. I also showed them Gujarat Transliteration<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Extension:Narayam/Gua… Gujarati Inscript<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Extension:Narayam/Gujarati/I… Extension:Narayam which needs help, Kartik has agreed to help us in this. Thanks. I also showed them the list of places of interest in Ahmedabad which could be developed as articles User:AhsLin/Ahmedabad, which Ashwin created and asked them to start helping out in this too. I request everyone from the community and WMF to help them as and when required, and lets have one strong community from Gujarat too. Thanks. -- Thanks Arnav (ricku).
