This discussion is follow on to the Pune Drupal developers meetup we had last Saturday (26 Dec 2009). We had a bit of confusion about which Drupal.org group we should use.
I believe many of us were not aware that there are two Pune groups in drupal.org.
Here is more info about the two Pune groups for Pune Drupal developers in drupal.org
groups.drupal.org/pune-india
- 80+ members
- Membership is automatic (anyone can join immediately)
- No moderation (Posts appear on groups.drupal.org/pune-india immediately)
- Manager: cityit (This is a company in Baner, website has phone number 020-2729-3456)groups.drupal.org/pune
- 19 members
- Membership is NOT automatic (anyone can not join immediately, but approval by manager is required)
- Moderation (There are zero posts on this group so far)
- Manager : aniruddha_3083 (apparently non-responsive)
I propose we use the groups.drupal.org/pune-india as the platform for our proposed Drupal related activities that we discussed in the Pune Drupal developers meeting on 26 Dec 2009.

To avoid confusion, lets "leave" unwanted Pune group
The member count of groups.drupal.org/pune increased from 19 to 22 over the weekend - I guess that must be because of the confusion I created in our meeting on 26 Dec 2009. My apologies for that. To avoid such confusion in future, let us remove ourself from the groups.drupal.org/pune. If the groups.drupal.org/pune-india has a much higher member count compared to the groups.drupal.org/pune group, then the future groups.drupal.org visitors will know that the groups.drupal.org/pune-india seems more active and used group.
To leave the groups.drupal.org/pune group, visit the group first, then click on my membership and then click on leave the group.
Thanks
FYI about the pune group
Hi,
Usage of group depends on the community consensus and responsiveness of the group manager, I hope someone was able to contact cityit to coordinate with group layout (the thing I talked about keeping jobs in a separate tab) but about http://groups.drupal.org/pune I was able to get the group membership open via groups administrator. So you dont need approval any more, but the number of people on pune group are low, so we as well use this one. Or maybe we should merge the two groups but it can go messy, in any case we need to put a post across on either of the group (which is not used) pointing people to the group being used to avoid confusion.
