Thanks Prateek for the minutes! The decisions do look encouraging, well thought out and definitely far more organised than the last attempts on the same. Do let the rest of us know how we all can contribute in our own ways.
However is it possible for you or one of the people at the meet to make a short informal news like writeup on the meet? It would not only be a good article for the ILUGD website but I would also like to post it to http://opennews.indianissues.org , a website on OpenSource/Free software initiatives in India.
