[FSUG-Bangalore] Thank You Very Much.....

Sat Mar 20 23:11:06 IST 2010

Hi every Body,
I'm writing this to thank all of those people who worked hard behind this
conference.
Beacause my final semester project submission deadline is close I can't
attend tomorrow.
It was very encouraging.

Thankyou for the stall, it was great explaining the possibilities of Linux
to students. We got
really good response.

Now it's time to become a member of fsf... I have been promoted this free
software since last 4 years
but was in no way associated with any official bodies. Just had accounts in
few linux forums.
Please enlighten me with the procedures and direction!

Thank you again to all!
