Sucheta, I will email the Wikimedia developers' list to let them know that you would like some MediaWiki developers to attend. Here are some flyers or notes that you can use if they are suitable for you. Ten things technically inclined volunteers can do to help Wikimedia projects: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Sumanah/TechVolunteersCanDo The "please contribute to MediaWiki" flyer -- https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:MediaWiki_flyer_20111116_color.pdf Also, I am the coordinator for MediaWiki's participation in the Google Summer of Code, a selective paid summer internship for college students who want to work remotely on open source software projects. The homepage for that effort is https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Google_Summer_of_Code and the best guide is http://en.flossmanuals.net/GSoCStudentGuide/ . I hope these are useful to you. Please feel free to translate, print, modify, link, and so on. Thank you! Good luck and best wishes! Hope you can realize great outcomes from this event. :-) -- Sumana Harihareswara Volunteer Development Coordinator Wikimedia Foundation _______________________________________________ Wikimediaindia-l mailing list Wikimediaindia-l@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from the list / change mailing preferences visit https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaindia-l
