[PLUG] The current and future state of PLUG(Ashwin Phadke)

[Ashwin Phadke]

I too think that there needs to be a CFP process for the talks on the Github repo. It will help generate awareness about the activities of PLUG and people will be more involved knowing that they have a public channel to put up what they want to say instead of back and forth emailing.Regards,Ashwin PhadkeFrom: <plug-mail-request at plug.org.in>Sent: Mon, 23 Dec 2019 12:11:51To: plug-mail at plug.org.inSubject: plug-mail Digest, Vol 59, Issue 13Send plug-mail mailing list submissions to   plug-mail at plug.org.inTo subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit   http://list.plug.org.in/listinfo/plug-mailor, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to   plug-mail-request at plug.org.inYou can reach the person managing the list at   plug-mail-owner at plug.org.inWhen replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specificthan "Re: Contents of plug-mail digest..."Today's Topics:  1.
