Thanks.
I am contacing with GP and Banglaink whether they have any reservation to be presence in a same platform if WM-BD organize the programme.
I will get back to you after the confirmation.
Please let me know whether you have started working with Robi (Axiata) and Airtel as well as our local Teletalk?

Hello Munir and Ali, both the press event and wikimeetup sound fantastic.
Do you know the Banglalink team? I can help in arranging. What time are you thinking?
We are working with multiple carriers. It is unusual, but I'm wondering if we could do a press event with all of them, if they are willing. I don't know if they will agree -- actually it is unlikely given their competitive position. But I want to try because it would be true to the mission, focusing on education and knowledge for the people of Bangladesh. I have no idea if it's possible, but I will ask them.
Since I don't yet know all of you, I don't know your relationship with the carriers. Please excuse me if I'm on the wrong track. And please let me know :-)
Thanks!

That's a very good idea Munir Vai. So, we should announce a Wikimeetup (Wikimeetup Dhaka 16) on November 13 right now so that more interested Wikimedians can join. What do you think?

Thank you Carolynne.
We would like to organize a press-event (Meet the press) with you .
This
will be for an hour or so. We will also invite the local wikipedian
after
the press event for a meetup with you. If you agree.
Both event will be in same venue.
We will try to settle with Banglalink regarding zerowiki. However, if
they
won't agree for a press event, we will do a simple meet the press event where you will share some of the global target and experience of
wikipedia
project and we will share our plan and activities from WMBD.
Please share your idea in this regard so that we can proceed with the logistics arrangement.
Thanks

Hi everyone, thank you so much for your enthusiastic support! (And I'm sorry for my delay in replying, was out of the office much of
yesterday.)
I will put language support top of my list to address with the
carriers.
Our goal is to have them provide free access to all Wikipedia
languages
and all Wikimedia projects. There are a few carriers who only give
free
access to zero.wikipedia.org aimed at feature phones on 2G networks.
We
are working on product solutions to make a better user experience
through
m.wikipedia.org even on 2G networks. This is a work in progress.
Many thanks to those of you who want to meet. I am open on Nov 13 any time after 3 pm. How can we best organize this?
I have to tell you, I am so excited about my trip to Dhaka. I am
thrilled
to work with the Bangladeshi community. We can create a great model
for how
Wikipedia Zero can engage with the more advanced local communities, to support the organic movement.
Thank you again
Carolynne

প্রিয় সবাই, গতকাল ১লা নভেম্বর উইকিমিডিয়া বাংলাদেশের আয়োজনে ১৫ তম ঢাকা উইকিমিটআপ আয়োজিত হয়েছে। ঢাকার পাবলিক লাইব্রেরি অডিটোরিয়ামের সামনের চত্বরে
উইকিপিডিয়ানদের
এবারের মিটআপ বসে এবং এতে ১২ জনেরও বেশি নতুন ও পুরোনো উইকিমিডিয়ান অংশ
নেন।
এই মিটআপে শুধুমাত্র উইকিমিটআপের জন্য তৈরি করা আমাদের চমৎকার নতুন ব্যানারেরও উদ্বোধন করা হয়েছে। আয়োজনের শুরুতে উইকিমিডিয়ানদের সাথে পরিচিতি পর্ব
শেষে
উইকিপিডিয়ার সাথে সবার পরিচয় কিভাবে হল সে কথা আমরা সবার কাছ থেকে শুনি। এরপর উইকিপিডিয়া ও বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়ার শুরু দিককার কিছু কথা তুলে ধরেন
উইকিমিডিয়া
বাংলাদেশের কোষাধ্যক্ষ আলী হায়দার খান তন্ময়। উইকিপিডিয়ার কারিগরি
দিকগুলোতে
কিভাবে অবদান রাখা যায় এ ব্যাপারে আলোচনা করেন উইকিমিডিয়া বাংলাদেশের নিবার্হী কমিটির সদস্য নাসির খান সৈকত। এছাড়া উইকিপিডিয়া সম্পর্কে
আলোচনায়
অংশ নেন তানভির মোর্শেদ (উইকিমিডিয়া বাংলাদেশের নিবার্হী কমিটির সদস্য), নুরুন্নবী চৌধুরী হাছিব (বাংলা উইকিপিডিয়ার প্রশাসক) ও অন্যন্য উইকিপিডিয়ানগন। এবারের মিটআপে অন্যান্যদের মধ্যে উপস্থিত ছিলেন উইকিপিডিয়ান সুফি, আরিফ, আফজাল, তৌকির, ফজলুল আজিম সহ আরো অনেকে।
উইকিমিডিয়া বাংলাদেশের নিয়মিত আয়োজনের অংশ হিসেবে আগামী ডিসেম্বর মাসেও
আমরা
১৬ তম ঢাকা মিটআপের আয়োজন করবো এবং শিঘ্রই এ সংক্রান্ত ঘোষণা দেয়া হবে।
আশা
করছি আপনারা সবাই এতে অংশ নেবেন।
