Hi Bobby, So moving forward what are we going to do about this different groups. Are we going to merge them into one group focused on African Wikimedians or should we maintain the current status quo.
Looking forward to hearing suggestions from everyone on how we can move forward with this conversation. I know we have a mailing list and Facebook group but adding a telegram page would also help in the information sharing process. Regards, Justice.
