Dear Damodar,
The Vishwakosh is in Devanagari script.
Thanks

Greetings from CIS-A2K!
We request the pleasure of your company at the event 'Re-releasing Konkani Vishwakosh & Building Konkani Wikipedia' . The event will take place on the 26th September, Thursday,10am - 11am at the Conference Hall, Goa University, Taleigao.
Upon CIS-A2K' explicit request, Goa University has approved the re-release of Konkani Vishwakosh under Creative Commons License (CC‐BY‐SA 3.0) to make it freely available to public and thus preserve Konkani language and culture in the digital era. This encyclopedia will also serve as one of the main sources of building and writing articles on Konkani Wikipedia (which is currently under incubation).
This is a major win for the Wikimedia movement in India. This is, probably, the first time ever a State run higher education institution has re-released copyrighted content under Creative Commons. Hope more such initiatives will be underway to "Let the Knowledge Go around"!
We'd like you to be a part of this event and help showcase Konkani community and language on a global digital platform such as Konkani Wikipedia.
Please see the link for the invite.[1] We look forward to seeing you at the event.
Best,
Nitika Tandon
Program Manager

Dear All,
On behalf of CIS-A2K, I am glad to share with you that GOA University has
signed an MoU with CIS-A2K.
As part of this MoU Goa University and CIS-A2K will work together to
digitize “Konkani Vishwakosh” under Creative Common license and build a
Digital Knowledge Partnership in order to enhance digital literacy in the
Konkani language and facilitate collaborative knowledge production and
disseminate the same free of cost through Kokani Wikipedia (currently under
incubation). Gos University and CIS-A2K will co-design and jointly
implement relevant training programmes to achieve this objective.
CIS-A2K is grateful for the support and encouragement received from the Goa
University Vice-Chancellor Dr. Satish Shetye; Prof. Alito Siqueira; Prof.
Priyadarshini Tadkodkar; Dr. Madhavi Sardesai; Dr. Gopakumar; and other
faculty of Goa University.
We are also equally grateful to Wikipedians Harriet Vidyasagar and
Frederick Noronha who have engaged with CIS-A2K team and been a constant
source of support.
Wish us best of luck!
Vishnu
प्रदीप जी, मुझे लगता है कि हमें इस अवसर को हिन्दी विकिपीडिया के
१०वें जन्मदिन से जोडकर देखना चाहिये। मेरे विचार से हमें हिन्दी के महान
लेखकों/कवियों की सूची बनाना चाहिये जिनपर या तो हिन्दी विकिपीडिया पर लेख
है हि नहीं या आकार के रूप में हैं और उन्हें चौपाल पर सुदाय से चर्चा के
द्वारा ज्ञानकोषीय रूप देना चाहिये। --सय्यद मुज़म्मिलुद्दीन

Dear All,
CIS-A2K is organising a 4 day Train the Trainer (TTT) program in Bangalore during 1st week of October 2013. The idea of the program is to build capacity and enable community members to conduct outreach sessions independently or with minimal support to introduce Wikipedia to prospective editors in their respective Indian languages.
By way of this program, CIS-A2K wants to support and enable community members who might be interested to conduct Wikipedia outreach sessions in their own cities/languages. The event is open to all Wikimedia volunteers from India who can and want to support outreach events in the coming year.
CIS-A2K is calling for applicants for it's Train the Trainer Program. If you'd like to be part of this program please make sure that you meet the selection criterion [1] and submit Train the Trainer Program Application From [2] by 13th September, 2013.
To know more about the program, rationale, overview, timeline etc. please check the attached document or visit the Meta page.[3]
We look forward to hearing from you soon. For any further queries please mail at a2k(a)cis-india.org

Dear Shri Vishnu,
I think you forgot to reply to my queries. I would also like to know the
responsibilities of Programme Officer and whether he is paid for his
servises.

Indic languages have got that flavour. It's the time to evaluate globally.
Start with Sanskrit.
Okay

I also congratulate Mr Muzammiluddin Syed for being selected as the new
Programme Officer.
Can the group know the criteria for selection to this post. (or is it given
somewhere?) I want to know this because I do not think that the 'BOLT
Award' , Gold medals from IGNOU, papers in weeklies etc are relevant and
really matter in this case. Was his contribution to Hindi wiki also
assesed? Were some other candidates also in the race?
