Open Source... e-government ... and India

This is an international conference on Open Source (Free Software/Open
Source might have been a better description) in the US. And look at the
'desi' participation: Rishab Aiyer Ghosh (27) ex-Delhi and key author of
the FLOSS European study; a special session for India (Ajay Kumar
of Kerala, Jivtesh Maini of Punjab, Sunil Abraham of Mahiti-Bangalore...
a convert to GNU/Linux and its relevance for NGOs, and Vinay Deshpande of
Simputer Trust). There are also other desi-sounding names. Wish more desis
could travel the globe at the drop of a hat... there are more points to
be made http://www.egovos.org/egovosagenda.htm
