Hi,
We are planning to have banner printed for the Wikipedia X Bangalore event.
We need people with design interests to help with the banner. Also if any of
you have prior experience in banner creation, please ping me off list. The
banners created can be reused by all the cities with minimal changes. These
banners will also help in future outreach events.
Regards

*Subject:* *Video Chats arrangements*
Dear all
as I mentioned previously
some of us expressed our wishes to video chats with other parties around the
world
(even Jimbo express such wish :P)
so I think it is to have a list or sort of thing to cross check each other
times
so I started one the ten yo wiki http://ten.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_Chat
I have a little request for everyone to convert your party time to UTC
also, for an easier match.
and I have divided the list into two sections, as I believe 15th will be the
peak hour of events.
do feel free to suggest anything
and if you wanna chat with our HK beaux, do mail me off list :P

Hi all,
This is to inform you that the grant request for the Wikipedia 10 New
Delhi event has been funded by the Wikimedia Foundation.
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:WM_IN/Wikipedia_10_New_Delhi
Volunteers who are interested in supporting this event in New Delhi
are requested to contact me.
At this point of time, the organizers have received a large number of
emails from interested participants. SARAI has offered its office to
host us. The seminar room at SARAI has a seating capacity of 50-60
people. It would be wonderful if you can help find us a venue which
can accommodate more people as we expect the responses to increase as
the WMF websites start putting up banners calling for participation on
WP10.
Amit Chaudhary from New Delhi has been helping us liaise with IIT
Delhi and MSME.Development Institute for space and we expect to hear
from them soon.
Yours sincerely,
Anirudh Bhati
