This event doesn't recognize the free software movement at all. They didn't invite any free software speaker, nor did they use the term anywhere. If the hackers of Bangalore are alert possibly a note could be distributed to the participants about the free software position. This kind of events are likely to grow more in number. This I feel is a parasitic activity, feeding on free software movement without any acknolwedgement. We should write release a press note on this.

I agree here. We are finding less and less reference to Free Software each day. This is a very dangerous situation, as people tend to forget the underlying passion that has sustained the movement - the passion for Freedom. Unless something is done fast, I see India going the Mexico way. -sdg-
