[FSUG-Bangalore] summary of volunteers' meeting 14th Aug

[Vikram Vincent]

Hello All,
"INDEPENDENCE DAY GREETINGS"
The reason I haven't used the word "happy" is because this is a day we
observe, recollect the sacrifices of our forefathers and renew our pledge to
uphold the values enshrined in the Preamble of our Constitution.  Free
Software Movement is all about Community and its Freedom. This means that we
have the responsibility to protect and strengthen our Freedoms from the
attacks by various vested interests, expand and strengthen our Community,
using every available opportunity, to further the Movement.
