Welcome aboard Nikhil. We need help on following things. Help whereever 
you can.

Do you know anyone from organizing body of LinuxAsia? I want to get the 
firm answer from them about the stall space for FSF India. Tomorrow I am 
going to talk to them on phone and if I don't get anything firm, on 
Saturday I will go to their office in Noida. Printing posters have to be 
postponed till we get assurance for stall space.

So far we have four members:

Sameer N. Ingole - Gurgaon
Amol U. Hatwar - Gurgaon
Mishi Chowdhary - ??
Nikhil Prabhakar - ??

We are planning to do round robin and attend talks in the process. At 
any given time there should be at least one person at stall to attend 
the visitors. Also if we get a PC we will be installing GNU software on 
GNU/HURD and keeping it on display.

For this installation we will need CDs and DVDs of GNU/HURD and other 
GNU software that I don't have at the moment. GCC certainly will be one 
and if possible working GCJ. Of course all these things depend on we 
getting a PC there like we got one in FOSS.IN.

I should receive handouts of FSF India and SPACE soon. Guys at 
Thiruvananthapuram will be sending them in. To attract people I am also 
planning to get a banner printed on flex (somebody please step in for 
the design please) and ask people to sign on it to mark the presence.

I will be paying for poster printing. Anyone for banner on flex, CDs 
DVDs of GNU HURD and other GNU software?

Any suggestions, inputs, criticism, advice.. ?

Regards,
