Dear All,<br>
<br>
After very successful wiki meetup in many metropolitan city of India<br>
( see below times of india report ) .The first wiki meetup at<br>
Kolkata on Saturday,11th December 2010 (2:30PM- 4:30PM) has planned.<br></blockquote></div><div><br>[snipped]<br><br>I just saw your email on the ilug-calinfo mailing list. IIRC, I think
Tinu had posted about the intended Kolkata meetup on wikimediaIndia-l
about a couple of weeks back, but was too busy at that time to react.<br>
<br>
I tried calling your phone number, but did not get a response. I can
help out with the venue - there are 2 - 3 distinct options that I can
possibly approach for giving the space free of charge, including the
West Bengal State Central Library. <br>
<br>
Do let me know if you would like me to take this forward. <br>
<br>
You can contact me at this email or on my phone +91-98300-20971. In
case, you are trying to reach me over phone and is unable to get me for
any reason, please leave a message with my wife (CCed above) at
+91-98745-80971 and I shall get back to you.<br>
<br>
cheers<br>

If we
advertise in local Bengali News papers (along with the English
newspapers) we can surely expect a bigger crowd. I assume at least 40-50
people will turn up. <br>
<br>But while placing news in newspaper, please give a mobile number or
email address instead of the wiki link. <br><font color="#888888"><br><br>Shiju</font>

TC/Mr Nath -
Soma says they can fit a max of 18 people + couple of their own people;
they have a projector. (She seems keen to host...)<br>
<br>Let me know what numbers you anticipate; she also offered to help
hire a bigger space if needed.<br><font color="#888888"><br>Bishakha</font>

Hi Jayanth/
Bishakha,<br>Expect a bigger crowd that 10.... The first Wikimeetup
would attact lots of enthusasists. Hyd 25+ and Chennai 45+ , not the
forget the ones at Mumbai & delhi.<br>
<br>I have a Reliance datacard , so probably it should work , even if
there is no wifi ( for demos). A projector may be a luxury, but if we
get some conf room, with one, there is nothing better than it. <br><br>Really
appreciate your efforts in setting up the Wikimeetup.<br>

<br>Do you know any NGOs who can offer space for this small meeting?
Would Sanhita be able to offer one-time space for this? About 10
people,I think, will attend - but Mr Nath can give you more accurate
information on this. (Also, on what is needed).<br>
<br>Would appreciate any help...also I will be in Kolkata for a whole
