@fossdot Can you please share the access to the code repo you were talking about in the last members call? I think it’s scalable if individuals manage the webpage for the particulars they are organising (like you mentioned)?

Also Vishal, kindly share the design template too for the same, the one we used for DelhiFOSS and KochiFOSS. That would be better to use so as to keep the theme same.

Thanks for that, also for the website part, we have to fill up the form at [indiafoss.net](https://indiafoss.net) ?  
After filling out the form, who’ll be taking the responsibility of managing the website OR would we be given a codebase?

@littleironical you need to fill out this form so that we can give you access to the system to manage the website.

Alternatively, you can self-host this frappe app - [GitHub - fossunited/indiafoss: Free and Open Source Software conference management by the FOSS United community.](https://github.com/fossunited/indiafoss)

Hi Vishal, a few follow-up questions:

1. It asks for an email, for DelhiFOSS, we’ve created a Google group, what should we do this time?
2. From where would we get the razorpay registration page like [this](https://pages.razorpay.com/mumbaifoss)?
3. From where we would get the CFP page like [this](https://indiafoss.net/proposal/new?conference=Mumbai-2023&c=Mumbai&y=2023&t=MumbaiFOSS)?

1. You can add your email address or the email address of the person who will be handling the communication with speakers and participants. Alternatively, you can create a group email add all the volunteers and use that email there.

2. If you don’t have a Razorpay account, I can create one for each conference. Let me know.

3. You can find the link to the conf: website, CFP and schedule link on the left panel on the dashboard. See the screenshot below.

1. I’ve tried using Google Groups, but I think only the people in the group could send the emails to that group and not any external members. What did you do for the DelhiFOSS such that all of us were receiving the mails?

2. Yeah, please set it up for us!

3. Thanks for guiding here : )

You need to update group settings for that - [Create a group & choose group settings - Google Groups Help](https://support.google.com/groups/answer/2464926?hl=en)
