Dear Sir, http://nrcfoss.org.in/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=33&a... The page on the following link does not contain any mention of the Free Software Users Group-Bangalore http://bangalore.gnu.org.in
Also you have wrongly represented our group (plus - Palakkad Libre Software Users Society). Our main page clearly states why we are not a GNU/Linux users group.
From the main page of plus.sarovar.org
"Many people adopt and use GNU/Linux purely on the basis of technical and cost criteria, without any appreciation for the underlying message of software freedom. We feel that describing ourselves as a Free Software User Group rather than a GNU/Linux User Group will contribute to a better appreciation of that underlying message.
Also, the free software cause is much bigger than any one operating system. Besides the fact that GNU/Linux is not the only free operating system today (our group welcomes users of other free operating systems too), one must also appreciate the fact that in the fast changing world of computer science and operating systems technology, no operating system or kernel is eternal. The message of software freedom, however, is."
Also we don't want to be listed as a linux users group. You could either change the title to Free Software user groups or FOSS User groups.
Hope you will take necessary steps to correct it.
Cheers Praveen
