We need to have some insights on how to meet the operational expenses for the day.
It will be great if we have a clear picture of the plans like atleast venue/speaker/lunch/expenses atleast before new year.
Dear Tinu, Srikanth and all on the Bangalore list,
Queried Barry on this yesterday; similar question from Pune group around expenses. The Foundation is funding a small amount for anniv celebrations - $500 per city. So this is one possibility.
If you'll are interested in applying, please fill out a grant request here ( http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Index) and email Winifred Oliff ( wolliff@wikimedia.org) with bank transfer info by Dec 31. The Pune group has applied there.
This one-time funds transfer can be made to individuals, who can handle this on behalf of the planning group in each city - since there is currently no entity that can receive this in India. Usual accounting procedures to be followed: keep all bills and receipts and account for full amount.
Best Bishakha
