+I just received word that there will be a Debian developer gathering in
+Bangalore, India, on the afternoon of Saturday, August 20th, at the
+<a href="http://www.iiitb.ac.in/">International Institute of Information
+Technology</a>. The target audience is current or aspiring Debian
+developers, and interested and sophisticated users of Debian in Bangalore. A
+<a href="http://www.iiitb.ac.in/debconf/">registration</a>
+page is available, and apparently there's an event mailing list.
+
+While I won't be able to attend, I think this sort of low-key, techie-focused,
+regional Debian gathering is a great idea... and it would be wonderful to have
+more Debian developers in India!
