FSD: campaign to spread Free software awareness in Karnataka
by sujith h 08 Apr '07

Dear friends, Today I attended a meeting of Forum for Science and Development(FSD), Banglore. They are planning 2 start a campaign to increase the spread the awareness & usage of free software in colleges, schools and among NGOs in Karnataka. The energy, motivation & the spirit in the FSD meeting was very high even though they have slight misconceptions about some terminologies. I hope our Friends like Vijoo, Vickram etc on FSD can correct it soon . But I feel that this campaign needs a lot of volunteers to achieve the goals. I think Free software Community in Bangalore must support & help FSD to make this dream into reality. We can make use of our experiences in Spreading free software awareness in Bangalore Colleges for this purpose. Even the students become active through our recent campaigns on colleges like BMS can also contribute a lot to this campaign. waiting for your suggessions. -- സുജിത് ഹരിദാസ൯ http://fci.wikia.com/wiki/Anti-DRM-Campaign Bangalore -- സുജിത് ഹരിദാസ൯ http://fci.wikia.com/wiki/Anti-DRM-Campaign Bangalore -- സുജിത് ഹരിദാസ൯ http://fci.wikia.com/wiki/Anti-DRM-Campaign Bangalore

Fwd: Special BLUG Meet: April 10th
by Praveen A 04 Apr '07

04 Apr '07

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Tejas Dinkar <tejasdinkar(a)gmail.com> Date: २००७ अप्रैल ३ १७:३५ Subject: [blug-non-tech] Special BLUG Meet: March 10th To: BLUG non-tech <linux-bangalore-non-tech(a)yahoogroups.com> The Bangalore Linux Users Group is happy to announce a special event on April 10th: T h e O p e n M o k o P r o j e c t Presented by Sean Moss-Pultz and Harald Welte Tuesday, 10th April, 4:00pm Hotel Chancery, Lavelle Road Bangalore OpenMoko (http://openmoko.org) is the world's first integrated Open Source Mobile Communication Platform. OpenMoko is supposed to run on all kinds of Linux-capable mobile phones. The first fully supported OpenMoko phone is the FIC Neo1973. Sean Moss-Pultz of FIC is the Program manager and driving force behind the project. Harald Welte is... ummm.. he's done so much for the FOSS community, maybe it's better if you just read about him here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harald_Welte They are going to show off their baby, explain what makes it tick, and how it works, and how you can get involved in this high-visibility project. They will be happy to answer any questions you may have. The event is open to (almost) everyone who is interested in OpenMoko and wants to learn more about the project. This event is developer oriented, and of interest to people who wish to contribute to the project at system (Linux), UI (gtk) or application level. The "almost" in the paragraph above stems from the fact that no more than 100 people will fit in the venue, and it is therefore first come, first serve. There is no cover charge, but you will have to register by sending your name to openmoko-event(a)blug.in latest by Monday, the 9th of April - only people who register and who receive a confirmation can attend. Sorry about that, but we have to take into account that the venue can only hold a fixed number of people, and that we have to tell the hotel in advance how many people will be coming (for the snacks and tea/coffee after the event). We are grateful to Geodesic Information Systems Limited, who have kindly agreed to cover the expenses of the event. So if you are interested in embedded/mobile Linux, the OpenMoko project, and the future of mobile communication, then please send your name to openmoko-event(a)blug.in Please spend some time going through the material at http://openmoko.org to prepare. This will help you get the most out of the event. And if any of you have already started developing for the platform (you know who you are), please let us know so that we can highlight this during the event. -- Tejas Dinkar http://gja.in -- പ്രവീണ് അരിമ്പ്രത്തൊടിയില് Join The DRM Elimination Crew Now! http://fci.wikia.com/wiki/Anti-DRM-Campaign

About Gnu.org.in
by Omshiva prakash 02 Apr '07

02 Apr '07

Dear All, Self Introduction : I'm Omshivaprakash .H.L born Bangalorian. I'm very new to mailing lists and IRC channels and willing to be more active participant in Linux user group activities in Bangalore. I was told by Mr. Nagarjuna to join Bangalore-Gnu-org.in and update my concerns about gnu.org.in to Bangalore Linux user group and here is my little draft on the same(I'm sorry I had not explored much about Linux User Groups in Bangalore but kept on looking for some contacts which I can get and found wiki etc. Hope this reaches all here in bangalore) Here I have my little bio-data to introduce myself to the group on my website http://shiv.techfiz.info , it is still incomplete :) hope I will be able to finish my website work soon. Regarding Gnu.org.in Last couple of weeks when I started getting into IRC channels #linux-india -#foss-in and I was also going through gnu.org.in found that there were too downtimes recently with the domain and contacted Bghosh and Anurag (#GOSUB #devmodem ) regarding this and even sent a mail to gnu(a)gnu.org.in expressing my concern about the website downtimes some times that lasted for 3-4 days or may be more. I run my own VPS server and use it for myself and also for few of my friends ( working hard to become linux geeks). I'm very much willing to provide the required space and bandwidth for mirroring www.gnu.org.in so that we can at least have a backup or a temporary page where visitors can get some updates on Gnu happening or server downtime reasons instead of reaching no where. Please let me know your views on this. Kannada version of GPL and Gnu.org.in I also found that there is no Kannada version of gnu.org.in or GPL License available for users. If any one working on this translation work, please do let me know I can be of some help and I need help with this If I initiate this task as I got to do lots of study on lots of technical terms etc hope all of you are here to help me with this task. Waiting to hear from you all. Thank you, -- -- "A well-directed imagination is the source of great deeds" -- With Best Regards, Omshivaprakash.H.L Email: Omshivaprakash(a)gmail.com Mob : 91-9343726518 91-9343866368 Website : www.techfiz.info www.techfiz.com
