- shout out via all channels.
- collected email IDs and phone numbers.
DrupalTVM Meetup 001 - Thank You!
We had a great meetup yesterday - the first one, of a lot more to come, attended by 13 of us.
How all of this started:
Anish and me had attended DrupalCon Asia 2016, at Mumbai, a few months back. Inspired and all excited, on our way back home, we were talking all about starting a community back home, at Trivandrum.
But once we were back, we both got pulled into quite a lot of stuff both at work and in our personal lives.
And gradually, all that plan became just a wish, without proper action to take it forward.
