Dear All,

Some members have written to me asking if the mail on the CIS-A2K Work Plan (draft) has been posted on WMI community list. It got held for mod approval initially and has hit the list later. I could see it in the list archives. However, I am taking the initiative of re-posting the e-mail below.

The first feedback on Work Plans was given by Arjuna. Thank you Arjuna! You can find his feedback at these links [3].

Warmly,

Vishnu

Dear All,

CIS-A2K Team would like to share with you it's draft Work Plan (2013-2014) for Indian language Wikimedia projects. The detailed work plan can be found here. [1]  The main objective of this document is to present a detailed plan with projection of outcomes and expected impact of the A2K programme activities, during the next 15 months. 

The A2K team has, over the last two months, extensively engaged with various stakeholders in developing these plans. These include a) some Wikimedia India Community members across various Indian language Wikimedia projects; b) some English Language Wikimedia community members from India; c) Wikimedia India Chapter Executive Committee; d) some potential institutional partners; e) a few like minded advocates of free knowledge; f) A2K Programme Adviser Dr. Tejaswini Niranjana; and last but not least g) a few of the Wikimedia Foundation staff.  We are extremely thankful to all of them who have taken time out in sharing their ideas and opinions and in actively giving feedback, which has helped us immensely in drawing up these plans.  This document has been made keeping in mind the objectives, opportunities and challenges faced by each of the Indian language Wikimedia projects. 

We welcome your feedback and suggestions to further refine these plans. However, for the sake of structured engagement, we would request you to please read the following guidelines [2] on how to share your feedback. We would deeply appreciate if you could share your valuable feedback in the next three weeks based on which we will revise the plans.

Looking forward to receiving your inputs.

Thank you,

T. Vishnu Vardhan

Programme Director
