Thanks for arranging such a good workshop. I'll definitely try to attend and also inform some of my friends.
But is that decided the exact venue? Please let me know.

Many thanks

Thanks for the workshop to be scheduled on 13th. I will try to attend the workshop for guidance of some advanced modules (core & contributed). I am mad about drupal.

Hi Sushanta. I do not reckon

Hi Sushanta.

I do not reckon meeting you at any of the earlier drupal meets in Kolkata. Greetings :-)

Good to know about your passion for Drupal. If you are on facebook (which most people check more often than the feeds of their groups on GDO), a good way to connect with other Drupalers in Kolkata is to join this FB group here - http://www.facebook.com/groups/229217230529226/

PS: My personal preference is to keep Kolkatans Drupal conversations on GDO, but if FB works better for most people, I am joining conversations there too. (mostly in the form of links back to relevant content on GDO or DO) :)

I hate facebook

Actually I do not use facebook. Most of the people stuck there for hours without any added value output.

You do not recon me because due to personal reasons I couldn't attend previous meets.

Hope we'll meet this time. :)

well done mukesh ..

@dgoutam: We are talking to folks at a few colleges to work out the venue for this, but things aren't moving too fast there.

At this point you could help there. Provide contact details of folks at colleges where we should be doing this.

Also, if you have time or can make time for this, would be great to have you onboard during the actual workshop.

carry on

We had connected with 2

sumeet.pareek's picture

We had connected with 2 colleges for this - Techno India and JU. At both these places the students body is busy with their placements, pre-pujo exams etc. and it seems like Oct 13th might not work out for them.

We would get a final word from these colleges on this by today EOD. If 13th Oct in deed does not work out, we would push the workshop for students to a later date.
