        worked well. While I started with Pune city meetup – other cities like Bengaluru
        also copy-pasted the event for larger reach. The pressure to get things done
        was not there and hence more actual work got done on Marathi, Kannada and Malayalam
        by contributors. Will be organizing again after a week. People like this format
        I think!”
