Hi,
FSFS Conference has slowly moving beyond talks. Network established by the conference are starting to bear its fruit.
Anand Babu, Director of FSF India is now visiting Venezuela to have further discussions on developing Venezuela into a free software super power. PDVSA is planning to create a free software based super computer. Special thanks to Juan for floating this idea during the conference. Long Live 'Joropo' ;)
This is just the starting..

PS: Joropo is the code name proposed for Venezuela Super Computer. Which should soon join top100.

Arun, that opens a new exciting chapter in our annals. Hats off to FSFS, FSF India, Hipatia, Space, and all concerned, who are making these developments possible. Freedom fosters co-operation, and as we move closer, the free software movement would advance and grow more rapidly.
With Kiran brewing up many plans in AP, there are many more reasons to celebrate the Annual Day of FSF India tomorrow!
Goodluck!
Best Wishes, Ramanraj.
