Hi,
Check http://fci.wikia.com/wiki/SFD/Bangalore/06 and add your comments there. It is a brain dumb and tune it if you feel some thing is not correct.
Cheers Praveen

Any events initial planning appears to be improper it is the continues effort of the people that shapes it. Am happy to learn that things have started in good pace. Sorry, I couldn't make it to the meet as am sleeping off to recharge after GPLv3.
Perhaps one or two colleges can be added, praveen take the contact information from off the list. And also if you send in the event announcement to me (off-the-list) I can help propagate it.

Off-list wont help in building community. Discussions, Fights, flames everything should be on-list!! And thats the where the fun and frolic lies of a comunity driven event.

Hi, I am happy that some initiatives are being planned. But in the end what matters is how the entire thing takes off. We just dont need any spl day to do anything.
Having external co-ordinators or GNU/Linux - Reps for colleges wont help. The initiatives should be taken by the people (students) within the institution.
Secondly, how many us bother to teach someone ? I believe the more you keep talking, the more you hold someone from programming. If you know perl, just go and teach your friend. If you know to install GNU/Linux, just go and do it for your friend. Most of the stuffs are learnt by fixing up things.
You can have tutorial sessions for various programming languages but no talks. Probably stuffs like how to use Gdb, learning Php makes sense rather than just arguing about how what/how-to etc. Make students aware of various technical-user-groups within the city which will make them get involved in the community.

Completely agree and that is why we did FOSS Month last time :-) And may be FOSS Year this time ;-)

I agree, what I meant was just to co-ordinate the Software fredom Day efforts we need some one from FSUG to guide the students. But students have to take charge of their college's activity.
And thank you for volunteering to co-ordinate PESIT activities. You can tell us who (a student from that college) is in charge in each of the colleges we targeted. Again thanks for volunteering to come up with the list.
Secondly, how many us bother to teach someone ?
I do. http://www.pravi.co.nr/2005/01/14/when-teachers-became-students/whenever I get a chance.
I believe the more you keep talking, the more you hold someone from
programming.
Is programming the only important thing? We have so many of programmers in our country and how much the society benefit from it?
If you know perl, just go and teach your friend. If you know to install
GNU/Linux, just go and do it for your friend. Most of the stuffs are learnt by fixing up things.
Completely agree.
You can have tutorial sessions for various programming languages but no
talks. Probably stuffs like how to use Gdb, learning Php makes sense rather than just arguing about how what/how-to etc.
Thank you for volunteering to do a tutorial on python.
Make students aware of various technical-user-groups within the city which
will make them get involved in the community.
Agree. So it was great to see someone volunteering for a lot of stuff.

Aanjhan, Please kindly understand that contact information like addresses and telephone numbers et al. can't not be exchanged on a list. I beg you not to mis-interpret my words.
This post isn't a reprimand, just a request to respect the fact that most of people on the list aren't greenhorns when it comes to this kind of work.
Cheers

Hello, I understand that a meeting has been scheduled for the middle of this week. It would be good if we can postpone the meeting to next week, week day would be fine, as we will be able to involve more people for the SFD preparation. Thanks. Vincent
