Welcome pratik. There are varyous ways in which you can help. YOu can look at FOSS Based projects and contribute to them. further more, if you know why free software is so important apart from being cost effective, you can propagate the word. Help in organising meet-ups or helping others in activities such as workshops etc. And since you know bash,python etc, you can help people if they come up with some question which you can answer on this mailing list (and others as well).
I keep conducting workshops on medium to large scale in many organisations, schools and colleges all over India and now abroad. You can contact me off the list and I will keep you i informed. Also we meet regularly. Although there were hardly any meetings some months back, in the recent past we have met regularly (thanks Dinesh Shah and others ).
So that's all I can say right now. And yes keep brining new issues on this list related to gnu/linux and we all will be interested to have a helthy fruitful discussion.
Happy hacking. Krishnakant,

Welcome Pratik. Just a suggestion- Please don't use "SMS lingo" in the email. Like this - "Will *u* people *plz* tell me how can i actively contribute in this LUG (* coz* its of my city)...." Hope, you will enjoy this mailing list (as we all do). :)
Cheers...
