No offense but I really don't like the description. We just had our first meetup and we've started planning for YAPC::India, really? We must concentrate on normal meetups first, then put our efforts to revive other PM groups (Delhi, Pune, Mumbai, Madurai, Madras, Hyderabad). 


And when all PM groups are ready with about 10 to 15 guys in each group, then we can have a India level meetup. That will be the biggest meetup. Then we can try to have such meetup once in 6 months. 

This India level meetup alone will be a big thing and we'll have to work very hard for that, YAPC::India will demand 10 times for more effort than that, so I see it's not that near.

Moreover it will leave bad impression if we start using YAPC::India, there are many countries which have more Perl mongers than us, they have more PM groups with more numbers of members as compared to us, they still don't have YAPC.

It doesn't mean I'm not in favor of YAPC::India, YAPC::IN is my dream, but we must accept the realities and should proceed step by step.

PS: Everyone will be having different opinion, so we should have a poll for this where people can vote whether they like to use YAPC::IN in these initial level meetups or not.
