Dear Wikimedians,
We have been able to secure travel funding from the organizers for TWO
volunteers representing the Wikimedia community at OSSCamp Lucknow.
If you have some experience as a Wikimedia volunteer (and preferably
but not necessarily some Mediawiki background) and are interested in
participating at the event, please write back to me.
The event is scheduled to be on 26-27 March 2011 which is the last
weekend of this month.
Thanks for your attention.
Yours sincerely,
Anirudh Bhati

Hello to all,
My name is Abhinav Upadhyay, and I am a final year
engineering student from Northern India Engineering College, Lucknow.
My purpose for emailing you is to inform you about about OSSCamp
Lucknow.
We are organizing OSSCamp on 26th and 27th of March in Lucknow.
OSSCamps (http://osscamp.in) are unconferences on opensource projects
and initiatives where people meet and discuss about various open
source tools, technologies and projects. Events like these are a great
source of active learning and sharing our experience and knowledge
with others.
People form all over India are coming to join us for OSScamp, and I
would like to invite you all for it as well. It would be our great
pleasure to learn more about Wikimedia India Chapter, how does it
work, how can we also get involved with it and make it even more
awesome.
I am expecting that you people will join us in great number and share
your knowledge with us by means of some excellent sessions. I believe
that, this will be a great platform for the Wikimedia India Chapter,
as I am sure, a large number of people will be interested in joining
it after learning more about it. It would be great, if you have some
goodies to distribute amongst the participants as it will excite the
participants even more, as well as it will encourage them to attend
your session with more enthusiasm.
I hope to hear a positive reply from the Wikimedia India Chapter.
Those of you, who are willing and interested in coming, please
register on our website:

Thanks & Regards
Abhinav Upadhyay

Hello Anirudh,
How are you doing? Let me introduce myself: I am Jennifer, Assistant
Editor of SiliconIndia & the SmartTechie magazine.
SiliconIndia is organizing the WebApps Conference at Chennai on April
9th, 2011. The conference brings together web developers, web
designers, technology enthusiasts, innovators, vendors, and users to
experience the future of Web Applications. The conference is designed
to bring together experts in all aspects of designing, and developing
Web applications. In today's internet world, the web-based
applications are revolutionizing both the features and technologies to
develop and design the applications.They also involve a diverse
collection of issues and technologies.
WebApps 2011 guarantees an influential platform for dialogue amongst
the web development community at large, the conference is the
must-attend developer forum showcasing key web technologies. Attendees
meet, mingle and exchange ideas with like-minded participants on
groundbreaking technologies and emerging industry trends, through
informal networking and peer discussions. The conference gathers Web
Application Developers, Application Managers, Web Architects, Web and
Graphic Designers, Web Development Managers, Web Strategists, Web
Technologists, Business Strategists, E-commerce Managers, Product
Managers, Technologists and Entrepreneurs and others.
I was exploring the possibility of a speaker from Wikimedia at our
event. I have enlisted the topics below. Once you identify a speaker,
I would like him/her to choose the topic of his/her choice. Each
session will be for 40 minutes. The key is to refrain from marketing
yourself or your company in anyway, and to share technical knowledge
with our audience. The audience is looking to learn new techniques,
get tips and hear fresh ideas that they can use immediately back at
their office/ projects. More than high level stuff, they are
interested in practical ideas to implement.
TOPICS:
Lessons learned in developing Web applications
Powerful Tools that You Need (and Probably Don't Know About)
Guidelines and best practices: Architecture of web applications
eCommerce web app Architecture and Scalability: Ten lessons from eBay
Developing secure and high performance web applications
Situation Normal, Everything Must Change
Performance Engineering for WebApps
DATE: April 9th, 2011 (Saturday)
TIME: 9.00 AM to 5.30 PM
VENUE: Chennai

Looking forward to hear from you.
Kindly acknowledge my mail.
Regards,
Jennifer
