Hi Folks,<br>
<br>
We had a great turn out today for the candle light vigil with people<br>
from all walks of life expressing their solidarity with the campaign.<br>
<br>
V Sasi Kumar, board member of FSF India addressed the gathering. Free<br>
Software activists, students, members of BMS and RV college, members<br>
of community computing center, members of Sangama - a sexuality<br>
minorities human rights organization, IT professionals, academics,<br>
were among those gathered. Mahiti and Servlots represented support<br>
from small software companies.<br>
<br>

We need to plan for the 27th event and some media coverage would<br>
definitely help. Please blog about the event spread word around about<br>
