Hi,
I came to know about this this event where UW folks will meet to talk about various projects being done in the UW for India. They've asked if someone from CSE could come and talk about our projects. Is someone up for doing this? At this point I don't know if they need a presentation/slideware, but am trying to find out.
I could do this, if no one else does - but I don't know of all the dept activities for India, so would need to gather this information from the relevant people.
Pl let me know about this.
thanks!
Rohit
Do you think the following forum is relevant to you? Would you like to go for this as a speaker?

Dear Mausam,
We have met at a couple of South Asia events.
We'd like to have you or someone from CS who is doing some work in India come
to our April 25 event (details below) for our final session on UW activities in
India. We expect a turnout of 50-100 people, as this is listed in the
Washington Weekend program as well as through our usual publicity avenues. We
would like to have you be around from about 6:45 PM til 7:30 so that attendees
can discuss your project.
I am happy to answer any questions, so please don't hesitate to ask.
Thank you.
