Hi, I had a few questions regarding the event (Bengali Wikipedia 10th anniversary Celebration)
- Has the dates for the event been finalized? Last I remember I saw it was supposed to be any of the following 2/3rd January, 9/10th January,12/13th December. - Has the activities/events been confirmed for the event? Any schedule or tentative events that should occur? - Has the venue already decided? I see a pretty detailed and specific grant request hence this probably is decided but i couldn't find it mentioned in any mail archive. - This probably is better asked after the the event lists are finalized but will there be talks/technical sessions? In that case I think it's quite about time for a call for proposal and talk Regards, Rabimba Karanjai
