Dear Friends,

Following were in attendance at our July 6 meeting:

Sumathi, Vinay, Dipali, Uday, Santanu Chakraborty
(welcome to Asha Princeton, Santanu), Anirban and
Amrish.

Most of the discussion was around organizational
issues.

The undersigned is taking over the role of Chapter
Coordinator from Sumathi. She will help me get started
and continue to be a valuable asset to our team.

Anirban will get back to Nuware and ask for time to
respond to their request. Meanwhile Sumathi will
collect information from  Sridhar and Giri on
Khajurdaha and Nalamdana before she leaves for India.

Dipali is heading the database effort. She felt that
the database should have not just the contact
information on our supporters but also information on
their level of interest so that we can seek their
help, when needed.

It was felt that each project should preferably have
two coordinators who would function as a team.

With Sanjeev leaving, Manoj is in charge of work
relating to the website.

Santanu volunteered to take ownership of the
Newsletter. He will take help from Rajesh in order
to get started, if necessary.

The East Coast Conference will be at Princeton on Aug.
24 - 25. Stay tuned for more details.

We felt that the general public (i.e. people outside
of Asha Princeton) should not have access to our
postings. Currently, our membership on yahoogroups is
open. Anirban agreed to look into this.

The next meeting will be on July 20. I will send a
notice with agenda later in the week.
 
Regards.

Amrish
