Hello,

+1 for exercism study group. Thank you Raghu for suggesting it. I liked
their idea of using TDD instead of some online judge.

Just want to bring up one point -

I think, It will be very difficult to actually map the questions at
exercism with the theme of the sessions at meetup. In that case, we can
even host it ourselves and populate questions based on the meetup sessions.

Thank you.
