Never before in India was a conference organized by the Communist
Party of a State and a few other power mongers. All sister
organizations of the party were told to ensure participation. G.O was
sent to all schools in Kerala to bring the kids to the Stalls....KGOA
beared the expenses of their members who attended the conferece...the
list goes on and on....i wonder if there were atleast 150 guys who had
anything to do with free software
