Hi,

I think India chapter should support Mumbai/Pune community, Both these community have worked hard and seeking Chapter Support. This is a good time to take good intiative by India Chapter.

Regards

Just a clarification, since I was a little flustered while writing this -

hi,

I agree with points made by User:AroundTheGlobe and Ashwin in the thread. I think holding a proper discussion on the modalities of the Organising Committee would ensure that the event will not happen in 2011.

I meant that having a discussion about the structure of the Organising Committee as the Chapter has suggested would ensure that no event will happen in 2011.

Unfortunately, I am out of the city nearly this entire month, but I have been following this discussion whenever possible, with quite some dismay. Agonising, because I look forward to being able to contribute whatever I can to making the event something which we will all be satisfied, but the current truth being that I am hamstrung for now.

But hopefully, the disconnect is largely a communication issue, and not seminal. Certainly several mails from Chapter workers belie the 'less sensitive' communications sent earlier, that have rubbed so many of us raw, and sparked this flaming row.

Let's put that behind us, and let's look at working collaboratively, the essence of wiki. Deadlines and formats that predetermine deadlines should play less of a role, especially for these time-sensitive situations. Let's just do all we can, pulling together to make this event something to look back happily upon.
