I've also shared the meetup link on a facebook group page, "The Bong
Connection" which has thousands of members, most hailing from Kolkata. I
hope to feed more info into this channel, Jayanta da, I have sent you the
link in your fb page, please do join this, its a good platform for
outreach. They have photocontests every month also, maybe we can ask them
to release those under CC-SA also. It also has members, i.e. Bongs from
across the world, I see it may be a major platform to encourage Bengali
Wikipedia participation.
