Bumping this thread again.
Just read @nukeador 's other post here:
Glad that Regional Communities and Community Gatherings are in it. I hope, South Asian Community as a whole will also be in the focus of Mozilla once again.
I guess, much of the answer to the following questions has already been answered there by @nukeador himself in this other thread about Arabic Gathering.
What are the things you want to accomplish by this meetup?
If this is a successful meetup, what things you would be able to do that you can’t right now?
So the answers would be something like:
The goal for these events are:
Align community goals with Mozilla’s goals
Improve individual and team skills
We get to discuss our common issues and find workarounds or solutions to them. The SA Region is a bit different than other regions in the world, so most of our issues are unknown or even if known, not experienced by people looking from far away.
As the local contact person and organizing volunteer during the first SA Meetup, I and fellow Mozillians from Nepal are ready to plan for the event.
