Remote Attendance
editLet us try out Tele conf facility for the wiki meet up , so that people who are not able to join in person can join on phone. This will also give an opportunity for people in other parts of India also to join. As this is a free service plan from Sabsebolo, there is a 10 line limit for bridging. (The callers will have to bear the expenses for calling the bridge numbers) All the participants have to follow the meeting guidelines and etiquette and have to mute when not speaking for an effective conf. If we have any problem, we will stop the teleconf and go ahead with the regular in person meeting
