Hi,
The activities of GNU Labs, a free software-based volunteer project, began at the MES College of Engineering, Kuttippuram, on Friday with a day-long workshop.

GNU Labs encourages the idea of sharing knowledge, supporting the ideals of the Free Software Foundation. It aims at improving the existing work of free software by helping students to complete their curricular project works.

If anyone is interested to start a GNU Lab in their college can use the wiki discussion page. A website for GNU Labs is under construction.
