MozCafe Pune

We will be organizing a MozCafe on Sunday, the 6th of May for all volunteers and Reps from in and around Pune. The discussions would be about the future activities/events which could be organized in and around Pune in the upcoming months.

Also as discussed in the last meetup, we would also be focusing on the creation of a possible Pune Mozilla group to enable better interaction and communication between all volunteers in Pune. The group would be formalized so that all volunteers can be more actively involved and work together on all Mozilla related activities.

The timings of event has been primarily planned as 4.30pm - 7pm. However, since it may not be convenient for all to reach within 4.30pm, hence we have kept a buffer time of half an hour as we plan to start the discussions by 5.00pm.

Also, since the event has been planned in a very short time period, we would not be having any sponsorship for the expenses. We are primarily planning to share it, as a a cup of coffee for each is all that we need. However, if the event goes awesome, and there are too much expenses, then we can file a budget request.
