[:http://hpnadig.net/Kannada-Wikipedia-Meet|Registration ] for the [:http://kn.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:PM|Kannada Wikipedia event] today crossed 100. Taking into account that the news about the event has just started to make it to the news media - with more than a week remaining for the event, this number sounds like a very good response until now.
Prof. G Venkatasubbaiah (author of 'ಇಗೋ ಕನ್ನಡ') and Nagesh Hegde (author of 'ಇರುವುದೊಂದೇ ಭೂಮಿ' ) would also be attending the event and giving short talks on the occasion.
