Hello Friends,
We had our very first successful online session this morning. I must thank Roopalben (on behalf of Gujarati Sahitya Parishad) for joining it despite of her prior social commitment, which she had to postponed just for this session.
I had confirmation of 5 users and was expecting a couple of more old wines to join, but only one user joined and one apologised through email for not being able to join due to power failure.
We discussed a couple of issues in the session and it was very useful. I will like Roopalben to share her experience here, what she thought about it and whether it was really useful from her perspective.
I would like these sessions to be made regular, at least fortnightly. As there was not much attendance this morning, I assume it was not a right time to have the session. If so, and you want to suggest a different time/day/frequency, please don't be shy and drop a line to me or leave your comments on the discussion on Wikipedia Chotaro. This is for the benefit of community and for the benefit of Gujarati Wikipedia.
Looking forward to your active participation.
Yours,
Dhaval S. Vyas {User:Dsvyas)
Dear Dhavalbhai , Good morning ...I would have loved to join the discussion but I had problems with my resi.net connection...

Hi Dhaval
Can I thank and congratulate you on taking this initiative. I also want to ask you to not feel bad that only one user joined in. Every community starts off with 1 or 2 people and more join in progressively.
I request you to continue this. It's a great way of building the community and Gujarati Wikipedia.
Do let us know if you need any help whatsoever for Gujarati / Gujarat community.
Warmest Regards,
hisham

Hi Vyas, I think not everybody is aware of the existence of this mailing list for Gujarati Wikipedia . May be you also want to put a note on gu wiki and also send a mail to India list (wikimediaindia-l@lists.wikimedia.org) to inform others

Thank you Hisham for your kind words.
I am not at all feeling even slightest disappointed. In fact am happy that the initiative was welcomed by the community and the session was attended by at least one active contributor.
I have already proposed for it to be regular, least fortnightly to kick off with. Gujarati wiki community is growing and new active users are joining the mailing list as well. So, hopefully next meeting or the one after that will definitely see more numbers.
Thank you once again for showing your willingness to support the community. Very much appreciated.
Kind Regards, Dhaval
