Thank you, @kanathan9 for your submission, as we do not yet have a chapter in Cameroon. I have a couple of questions:

• Please tell me about your cloud native involvement in the ecosystem.
• Also, based on your LinkedIn profile it says you are based on Quebec ,Canada. How often do you travel to Cameroon?

[kanathan9]

Hi @AudMonte01,

• With a couple of friends we are hosting events around Cloud Native themes. By the way, we have an event planned on November 23th this year. Though they are more general event around software design, architecture and career development, cloud native solutions are very frequent in the talks and subjects mentioned. So we agreed to start hosting events that are more focused on cloud native solutions aside of our usual event.

• Half of the year, I am out of Canada, mainly in Cameroon.

Let me know if you need more precisions. Thanks,

[AudMonte01]

That is excellent news, @kanathan9. Can you confirm that half of the year is dispersed? Or is it 6 consecutive months? I ask because our activity standards are for each group to host at least 1 meetup every 90 days.

[AudMonte01]

Hello @kanathan9 - please address my above question.

Thank you, Audra

[AudMonte01]

I am closing this issue since we have not heard a response.

Kind regards, Audra
