[fsug-bangalore] Times of India wants to cever FSD..plz send in ur detai

[Frederick Noronha]

Better late than never! We marked SFD in Goa only today (at St Xavier's College, where we took the opportunity to build up a new, nascent user-group) because of the Ganesh Chaturthi long holidays last weekend.

And, we'll be continuing at the Exhibition of Computers and Allied Products (little Goa's largest computer trade fair) on Sept 23/24 at Panjim's Hotel Mandovi.

Ya I tried to do something on SFD, but as Sajith said nothig materialised on 
*SFD* but we are still trying to do those things planned for SFD now. (We 
started very very late - just two weeks to organise and the last date for 
getting the materials -- CDs T Shirts etc from
softwarefreedomday.org<http://softwarefreedomday.org>was July 1). Next
year we will have a better SFD in Bngalore. Wiki, Mailing
list (especially for this are in place already)
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/little_league/ (not just for SFD )
http://fci.wikicities.com/wiki/Main_Page (FOSS Community India for advocacy 
-- especially for SFD)

The first step is a seminar at BMSCE (Basavanagudi). Ya we are going there 
this saturday. I just have to confirm the date with CS HOD. So I will let 
you all know after it is confirmed. 

Anyone interested to come ?

Cheers
