[Oriya-group] Fwd: Minutes of the first Ubuntu Indian LoCo Team Meeting

[Gora Mohanty]

Hi,
  This is the last message regarding the Ubuntu Indian team that I
will be forwarding to these lists, other than one announcing the 
formation of a new mailing list specifically for discussing Ubuntu
Indian topics. I thought that people might be interested in the
decisions we arrived at prior to the IRC meet with the Ubuntu Council
on Tue. afternoon.

Regards,
Gora
