I'm writing to update you on the community meets held last week. (I had
visited Mumbai, Pune and Bangalore along with Barry.)

Hi Ashwin
This agenda sounds great and I'm sure the meetup will be very
productive. I'm sorry I won't be able to attend, but do let me know if
any particular ideas/initiatives emerge for which you require support
