Hello luggers, good-morning.
Greetings of the season and wishes of a prosperous new year ahead to all of you.
I write this mail so as to invite suggestions on the events for the coming year....We ended last year with a bang and drowned in the gnu-linux waters at a linu lunacy trip. But this year we need to have a concrete plan on the following.....
--> Workshops
How about a monthly workshop, in some school or college. It would be a 1 day one. The school/college provide the hardware, room etc. & few luggers can do an install/demo & give short talks.
--> Gnu-Linux lunacy trips
We could/should have this at least once in 2/3 months ;-)
--> Conferences
I am toying with idea of a Linux localisation event ( taking up only linux issues & not overlapping with Indic-computing workshops ). First will try to do a virtual one, ie online on irc, will get all language team coordinators, translators, hackers etc to discuss localisation issues. Will do this probably sometime in Feb. Then maybe do a real one ,if we get some backup/sponsors . Or will continue the online ones making them monthly.
