Hey, I am a newbie to Wikimedia-India. I have been working with the Wikisource community since my GSoC intern started. First of all, I think this project is a really nice opportunity to increase our visibility.
I also request Ansuman to be a bit more civil. Being nice and respectful doesn't hurt. Such kind of behavior is not acceptable in a mailing list where everyone is volunteering just out of interest. Also, in the 10 months that I've been with Wikimedia, I am yet to see such rudeness on the mailing list.
