Hi people,
The staff and management of Shah and Anchor Kutchhi Engineering College (SAKEC)- Chembur, have expressed an interest in conducting a workshop on GNU/Linux. I am an ex-student of SAKEC and hence I am putting forward this request on their behalf.
Is conducting the workshop feasible for the GLUG? If yes, we can discuss issues pertaining to this. What are the terms and conditions, if any?
Cheers, Ashok Iyer
hi ashok,
glug will be more than happy to conduct a workshop. it will be nice if u can get some details like the type and experience of the audiance ... the topics that the students / audiance wish to be covered and when is it most likely to be scheduled.
it is best to have it on weekends so that there is little problem for speakers to manage their time
most workshops for students are spread over 2 days and laid out usually like: 1) intro to free s/w paradigm and its philosphy ... 2) Installation 3) Getting around with GNU as an OS. doing everyday things. 4) Programming and scripting envs. 5) some admininstration topics. 6) question answers at end of each day. 7) hands on labs sessions if possible 8) free s/w cds are sold by FSF india at dirt cheap rates (cost of media and burning)
you can reach me on 9820693048 if u wish to know anything else.
take care harsh

SAKEC is an engineering college. It has 3 engg. streams
1. Construction. 2. Electronics. 3. Information Technology or Computers (I am not sure ;) )
Regarding the topics that need to be covered, I guess the GLUG is in a much better position to decide on the topics based on experience of past workshops. The workshop can be scheduled anytime starting next week based on availability of speakers etc.

We can definitely arrange for the seminar on weekends. No problems!
most workshops for students are spread over 2 days and laid out usually like:
- intro to free s/w paradigm and its philosphy ...
- Installation
[snip] I guess the topics that you have mentioned cover almost everything that is necessary. Harsh, please suggest how can we go ahead with this. I can guarantee full cooperation from the college management.
The college will be able to provide OHPs etc for the workshop. Let's chalk out a concrete plan! Thanks once again.
Cheers, Ashok
