Dear Wikipedians:<div><br></div><div>Please do not miss the monthly wikipedia meetup tomorrow. We have an interesting session with a catch up with Bishakha Datta the newly appointed WMF board member. She has come down from Mumbai. This will be followed by numerous updates by Telugu, Tamil and Malayalam wikipedians. There are going to be discussions on the India context for the chapters meeting and the Developer meeting in Berlin. </div>
