[Fsf-friends] Linux Technology Extension(LiTE) centre

[OST @ C-DIT]

Hai Friends,
   One of the strong criticisms against the free softwares is the lack
of technological support for those choosing to adopt it. The Centre for
Development of Imaging Technology, an autonomous centre under Govt of
Kerala is coming up with a creative response to the criticism by
establishing 100 Linux Technology Extension (LiTE) centres all over
Kerala. They will be launched on 20th October by the Hon'ble Chief
Minister Sri. Oommen Chandy in the CM's Chamber. These centres will
initially provide installation, trouble shooting, and user training for
Linux and Open Office. In the next phase they will also be equipped to
give support for development of free software solutions. As the Linux
user base gradually increases, C-DIT hopes that these centres will
generate more and more micro-employment. More details on

    Expecting your valuable suggestions, comments and above all support.
