Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] Topics for my talk @wikiconference India
Thanks for the ideas for the talk folks. I'll try my best to cover the topics you suggest and hope we can have a good discussion throughout the three day conference. Thanks for the warm welcome. As always, I'm excited to be visiting...and seeing you all.

Glad you are making your presence to India conference and delivering a talk. Cant wait to to hear your words. IMO, I think it would be nice, if your talk focuses on the future of India/Indians in the wikimedia movement.. You might also consider talking on how people can contribute to improve Wikipedia's presence among the strong and culturally inclined Indian community. Open for suggestions. Thanks, Ade.

Warm welcome to India barry, hope this'd be like a homecoming for you as you have been closely associated with several programs in India. And about suggestions from Indian Wikipedians, i'd request you to put few words about your understanding and suggestions about regional communities in different parts of India. rgds Subha On 12 November 2011 13:28, Naveen Francis navee...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Barry, Warm welcome to India !!!
