Hi,
    It is great to see the revival of bangalore.pm and we must make sure we continue this traction but at the same time we should take a look at how this is being done by the other communities and learn from them , Please add your thoughts on what are your suggestions on improving bangalore.pm once we collect everyone's thoughts we can talk about this in the meetup and decide .


Some of the things on my mind are

* Come up with an agenda for the meetups, right now the meetup page has a lot of items at a very high level If this has been discussed then let us put the details maybe something like how we plan ( there is an example below but put something up that you have discussed) 
    - Welcome speech
    - Talk 1
    -  Break for networking
    - Talk 2
    - Lightning talks
    -  Topics for discussions if any
    - Conclusion

  


* I would like to see more code contributions from the group , ideas include

      -  Lot's of third party software software do not include perl modules ( I recently came across firebase and am writing a perl lib for that ) when you contact them they do not have a problem with adding perl but none of their programmers have the expertise so these are low hanging fruits that can make significant impact

     - Look at the latest projects p5-mop , moe or others and see if there is some interest among the group to contribute to them  

   - Mentorship/Internship for Students/perl newbies
   


*  We need to have a group of people designated to share responsibility , 

    - Right now the contact for bangalore.pm is abhishek, should we have him continue or is someone willing to help him or how do we handle this ?

   
   - Mailing list - we need to come up with some rules , In my opinion at the minimum we should at least point out to people when they send an email which includes the digest messages or ask them to change the subject or start new thread when required


    - Website is handled by shantanu and venkat so we know who to contact 


    - Meetup co-ordinators who are in touch with speakers and also the organizers and the members
