Dear All,
It was a great team work at the CAN InfoTech. Thanks to Nawaraj Ghimire
for such a awesome commitment and passion to keep going for all the six
days of volunteerism. Thanks to Nirmal Dulal as well who shared some of his
time on the Information Desk during his CAN InfoTech visit. A great
applause to Suraj, Nikesh, Firoj and all other team members in the
volunteers list, who put up a great effort in sharing about FOSS and
Wikipedia to the mass visiting the CAN InfoTech.
As promised during the CAN InfoTech, we are now Planning for the Wiki
School from 1:00 PM - 4:00 PM. Thus, this Saturday also, we are expecting a
respectable numbers of future Wikipedians might walk in for free-
Wiki-Training. I would be glad, if some other volunteers, who have some
free time this Saturday, or can manage (some free time) would like to join
us as Training / supporter for this Wiki-School at Putalisadak. Please do
ping me if some of you would could make some time for face-to-face Wiki
class.
With kind regards,
Hempal Shrestha

Dear Hempal ji, Nawaraj ji and the team
I'm really impressed by the effort you have put in such a short time and
the energy of the team. It was a pleasure to visit the wiki and foss stalls
at infotech yesterday. Appreciate your activities in promoting Nepali
language Wikipedias.
I'm glad to help in any way I can.
Thanks
Indiver
