Adding, the bills relate to only technical expenses like such for Wifi.

Hii !
Thank you Manan.Its just something came to mind observing past few meetups.
We have had past meetups in cafes. However what has been noticed is
that,
- Certain Cafes have relatively loud music. Loud enough to not being
able to clearly hear what the person on the extreme end of table
wants to
say.
- There is lack of space. Say for atleast 15 people. Like the CCD and
Barista at Dadar(Shivaji park) is very small.
- Their Wifi strength is not strong enough and keeps breaking, it
kind of breaks continuity. So, for that i guess Datacards can help. Possibly atleast two. I can get one.
So Manan and Suyog, what you think, the cafes you suggested would overcome these things? We could surely think and hold it at one of the place then. Or may be some more suggestions. Also, if we can get a classroom of any coaching institute or so for
2hrs,
could also be a good venue in terms of being discussion friendly.
Regards, Nikita Belavate.

Hi Karthik,
Its indeed a great Idea. @Nikita - Kudos for bringing this up.
Following are few Coffee houses with free Wi-Fi availability while some of us can get our laptops/Tablets for the live demos.
- Generally any Cafe Coffee Day Outlet - Bhandup, Ghatkopar, Nirmal
Lifestyles - Mulund, Hiranandani Gardens, Sion west,
- Bru world Cafe, Andheri and Bandra
Hope, this would be helpful. Also, I can volunteer to bring one laptop from my side. :)

Hi all,
this is in reference to an upcoming meetup in Mumbai, which is yet to be announced.
Applause's to Nikita Belavate, who wanted the forthcoming meetup to be much more productive one. She wanted to do an editing session, to motivate
and
explain other non-editing volunteers to edit Wikipedia articles. We have few volunteers who haven't yet involved themselves in editing ever, whereas we believe that the promary and best way of contributing to Wikipedia is by editing and helping the article grow both in quantity and quality. I'm sure its been much gap, since an editing session in Mumbai, and the plan sounded great. +n for it! :)
However, we do always face venue problem, and yeah an editing session
will
involve a couple of internet connected computers. Will be great if
anyone
knows any place in Mumbai, where we can use their systems probably for *two hours* for the meetup. Just an attempt to enhance the Mumbai community
in
absence of some senior volunteers. *Do please let us know*!
Thanks in advance!

Its a lazy time for all on Sunday, and we can consider that time. However, Sunday's are normally problematic owing to Mega Block mostly on Central line, and that most of the people are from that area. In that case, everyone will prefer Saturday.
For Class-rooms, I could try to get in touch with my alma mater and get some help maybe for free.. My College: RAIT, D.Y.Patil University Campus, Nerul, Navi Mumbai
I would need around 10 days time to get things sorted.
I appreciate your willingness to talk to your college authorities, applauses for you :) Is it possible for you to confirm by this weekend, or atleast you can inform us if they will be willing to allow us. You need not worry, we are trying to find different better places. However, classrooms are the much convenient one as they will be noiseless and will be spacious too. DY Patil sounds very much cool, however Sunday's are again a problem in Harbour line. May be you can try, and update us constantly.
Thanks again Manan.
Let me your views on the same.
