Thank you for your comments everyone. We ( Vishal, Riya, Mangesh and I) took into account all the suggestions and we agree that while holding the events in the same timeframe may solve some of our logistical issues and overhead, this may not be the ideal choice for the community and participants.
Our next steps will be to create a suitable timeline between both these events, which ensures there is enough gap between CityFOSS tour, FOSS Hack and IndiaFOSS 4.0 to ensure all events can be planned well. As Kailash said, FOSS Hack is an event that may not require a lot of involvement from the team’s side and can be opened for the community to organise, with the necessary support from FOSS United (For example, FOSS Clubs and CIty chapters can organise local FOSS Hacks)
We’ll be discussing more on this in the upcoming Community Call - December 2023
Please keep your inputs coming!
