This is a lot of stuff!! To do any reasonable justice to this much
topics it will take more than 2 weeks of intense sessions.

What is the current level or awareness of GNU/Linux in your batch? I
would suggest that some one of you prepare some course material and
take the seminar, we in the list can contribute/help with the course
material as well as any doubts that you have. This has the duel
advantage of being more sustainable as well as reusable.

I can help those who create the course material, if they can come to
Trivandrum. To start with I can send you the course material we
prepared for Tvm GNU/Linux user group some time back, along with the
TeX sources.

btw please go through http://www.gnu.org/gnu/why-gnu-linux.html when
you have time.
