FSCI October Meetup
We conducted previous meetup on June, mostly focused on updation of poddery tos and privacy policies. Poddery now have a privacy policy and terms of service. One task left to do is fsci wiki updation and i believe we can discuss that in this meetup. Lets conduct October month's meetup on this Sunday (14th). Here is a rough list of topis to be discussed in the meet, you can comment if anything is missed or need to be changed.
- Restarting poddery funding campaign.
- Wiki updation and improving documentation.
- Discussion on resource management for services.
- Discussion on pending tasks.
- Presenting reports on conducted events.
- Plans for programs in next months.
- Discussing about EU's actions and their aftereffects.
Location suggestions are requested, Thrissur and Kozhikkode are currently available options.

Basic server management training if new people volunteer. Kozhikode is closer but if more people prefer Thrissur, I can come there as well.
