Dear friends,
Today I attended a meeting of Forum for Science and Development(FSD), Banglore.
I could not attend the meeting because I was attending a training on "Jumpstart to Localization" for the last 3 days.
That's ok praveen.

They are planning 2 start a campaign to increase the spread the awareness & usage of free software in colleges, schools and among NGOs in Karnataka. The energy, motivation & the spirit in the FSD meeting was very high even though they have slight misconceptions about some terminologies. I hope our Friends like Vijoo, Vickram etc on FSD can correct it soon .
I am confident that they will do that, we can help there too.
For sure.
But I feel that this campaign needs a
lot of volunteers to achieve the goals.
I agree and I volunteer for it.
I think Free software Community in Bangalore must support & help FSD to make this dream into reality.
We have started a wiki page for distributed co-ordination this campaign.
If you want to help out with this, you can sign up at the wiki page. http://fci.wikia.com/wiki/Campaign_to_promote_free_software_in_karnataka
(The wiki at bangalore.gnu.org.in was not editable so I could not create a page there)
Good move!!!
We can make use of our experiences in Spreading free software awareness in Bangalore Colleges for this purpose. Even the students become active through our recent campaigns on colleges like BMS can also contribute a lot to this campaign.
I will post a mail to bmslug and I am sure they will be able to help out in this very important campaign.
How about making some posters, banners and T shirts, any volunteers ??
waiting for your suggessions.
Some of my suggestion, looking forward to others suggestions too.
Lets Rock!!!
Cheers Praveen
