Morning Madhav,

Your ethusiasm regards the same is highly appreciated and i assure you that is has been seen in good stead. With regards to the expenses and sponsorship as highlighted by you i would earnestly suggest that you discuss the same with your peers at the upcomign meeting.

Very simple Madhav.....in this world everything works based on a simple philosophy of demand and supply. You can lead 10 horses to the river but cant force even one of them to drink.

The way i look at it Madhav, it makes no sense to take up the mantle alone if there is no vociferous support. I would earnestly suggest that we scale down the size of the event and lets have a 2 day joint workshop between bombay-goa linux user groups.

Me will have the same presented to the bombay lug and line up speakers for the next month. Feb 21-22nd can be a good time to hold this workshop. Lets have a target of 15 speakers spread over 2 days and arrange the same between bomba-goa lugs. The workshop would be open to all over the country with a small entrance fee of 200-300 towards meeting the expenses of food/eatables.

This i can assure you will work without any sponsorship and won't require you to cry out hoarse. Get this moving and once we can pat ourself on the back for such small events like this Madhav i can assure you the rest will fall in place.

Trevor
