Hi!
I would like to praise the kindered soul (Abhas?) that set up this wiki:
http://bangalore.gnu.org.in/GPLv3/
Great work, great look and feel. Can we migrate the rest of FSUG site contents to something like this?
Also, haven't we done moving to gnu.org.in list? In that case, isn't it about time to update this page with the new list information? :
http://bangalore.gnu.org.in/?Mailing-List
It is still pointing to the old list addresses and archive. Shall I go ahead and change it? (I'm sorry I'd been doing a Rip van Winkle of late and hence not quite up-to-date with the happenings!)

Oops , thank you for pointing it out we need to update that.

Well - what you see here is a freely available skin for PmWiki - which is the wiki engine being used there. (I'm sure a lot more can be done with PmWiki itself - if anyone wants to contribute content or plugins, please do mail across...)
I can setup a similar wiki (make with a little different theme) using PmWiki - so you can then copy and paste the existing wiki content there. Would that look good?
Incidentally, we now have a better URL for the conference:

Just made the changes there. Do check it out. You should make changes to it, if any are further required.
Cheers, Abhas.

Hmm, um-hm. (Looks around.) Anyone?

If that would not eat up too much of your time... (I volunteer to copy and paste!) The current one has got oh-so-20th-century! looks. In my opinion, at least :) What do everyone else think?

Thank you Abhas. I'd have done it myself, but was unsure of the status. I'd been seeing posts to the old group address, so...

20th century looks isnt important. IMHO, the site should be simple and should be viewable in all kinds of browsers including handhelds and for people with disabilities.

True, true. These are very noble intentions. However, the present site could also do a lot better than look as repulsive as it does now :-/
Aesthetics also is a noble goal in a somewhat orthogonal way.
(Hope nobody objects to my moral authority to declare it repulsive - the CSS presently we have is my doing... well, somewhat. I was younger and clueless then. Not that I have improved since, but still.)

Got a question here - is it a good time to start publicizing this URL? (Through word of mouth, email, company bulletin boards, weblogs, IRC, slashdot, what not.)
Or should we (we = me and my tapeworms, at the very least...) wait for more concrete plans to take form? :)

Hey I think we should have started this long ago. Anyway I have started the publicity on my end. BTW when and where are the planning meetings being held for the conference prep.? It's too quiet to the naked eye. Regards Vincent
