This is mind boggling and tells on the effort of you guys.
I am waiting to grab the Q & A part of the talk, where is it ?
Please do post the URL.

The catalyst here was Shyam of the Model Engineering College.

A big round of applause should go to many, particularly
Ramkrishnan, Alex M. Alex and Anoop.  We cannot forget
guys like Selvam, Jeffrin, Sunil TT, Titty Jacob, Pradeep 
Somasundaram et al.

Goody.

I ferverently hope that all the other Kernel User Groups across
India will take a leaf out of your book and follow suit, lest 
they be written off, say 10 years from hence; as just another 
kernel group which is no more existing because the kernel is 
no more used now.

RMS never asks to rename GNU/Linux to Stallmanix, he justs asks
for credit where it is due by renaming the OS by the prefix GNU.
