A gentle reminder of the special Wikimeetup on the coming friday. Barry is very eager to meet the "very active" Wikipedians in Bangalore... We also get to know the Foundation's plans for India. Please signup and do try to attend.

Mumbai has displayed an impressive "show of strength" of Wiki enthusiasts . It is our turn now :)
