Folks, please do reach out to Indivar and help him in his study. I have spoken to Indivar and I think the issues that he is studying are very important for understanding the FOSS community in India.
With warm regards,
Venky

Hey,
My name is Indivar Jonnalagadda, I am a student at TISS, Mumbai. I'm contacting you with regards to my dissertation which is a study of FOSS culture in India.
Basically I want to look at the ideas of FOSS developers/enthusiasts regarding themes like intellectual property rights, internet, innovation & collaboration and also look at how these ideas are linked to the practices of FOSS. As part of my study I wish to interview developers and advocates of FOSS. That is why I'm posting to this mailing list.
If anybody is interested in sharing their experiences and views on FOSS in India, please get back to me at indivarj@gmail.com. Based on your convenience and preference we could either have an interview over telephone/skype or in person.
Thanks. I'm looking forward to speaking to some of you.
