The below mail FYI. Hope to see active participation from the Assamese Wikimedia community. This is a good opportunity for all of us to come up with a shared vision for the Wikimedia movement's growth in India.
Best, Vishnu

Dear fellow Wikimedians,
(this is important and a rare opportunity -- please do take a few moments to read.)
I would like to draw your attention to a major piece of news:
The Wikimedia Foundation is convening a community consultation on the future of Wikimedia work in India, to be held in October in Bangalore, with significant representation from across India, the different projects, and the different language communities.
Please see the following page on Meta for details, context, and to begin discussion the delegates you would like to see participating. All costs will be borne by the Foundation.
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/India_Community_Consultation_2014
Let's try and keep discussion on the talk page of that page on Meta, so everyone can follow, even people not on this list.
Also, your help in forward this widely, translating as necessary, etc., would be MUCH appreciated. Again, this is an important opportunity, and we need to ensure we get every community's attention.
I look forward to this conversation very much!
Asaf
I've forwarded the message to User:Joli and she is willing to join the the event if it is held in Bangalore.

Great. Thanks for taking the initiative Gitartha!
Please ask User:Joli or anyone else from Assamese community to register their preference on the Meta page link in the mail I have forwarded.
Please note that WMF has committed to sponsor the travel and stay expenses of one community nominated Wikimedian. It would be really nice if the Assamese community can discuss this in Village Pump and nominate a person.
Please also note that you can share your feedback and questions on the discussion page on Meta.
Best, Vishnu
