Re: Registration

Dear Mr. Mallikarjun Angadi, It's nice to know that you are interested in participating in GNU/Linux seminar (The one @ SPCE on 19-20 Oct.?). However, the seminar is open to only student members of IEEE of SPCE (Saradar Patel College of Engineering). :-( But, after receiving the kind of response and requests to participate, we will soon plan a similar workshop in near future, which is open to all. Sorry to turn you and many more down, but wait for some time and we will give you a workshop for sure. Thanks for your interest in GNU/Linux.

SMALL GRANTS: Need resources to write Free Software?
by Frederick Noronha 08 Oct '02

08 Oct '02

Sarai/CSDS, a Delhi-based research network that realises the potential of Free/Open Source software, is offering a limited number of small grants (in three categories of under Rs 10,000; Rs 10-30,000; and Rs 30,000-60,000) for those willing to write socially-useful programmes and put these out in the public domain. Ownership of these programs will remain with its writer(s), under the GNU/GLP or similar suitable licence. But the coders will undertake to widely distribute and make available their work to those who desire to use the same, in the interest of promoting Free Software/Open Source in India. Email in your plans and suggestions via email to application(a)sarai.net with a copy to fred(a)bytesforall.org not later than October 31, 2002. Use "FLOSS application" as the subjectline. This should contain the following details: * Outline of project * How this project would be relevant to society's needs * Stage of the project (if work is underway) * Time-frame required for completion * Whether work will be done singly, or if jointly, names of all individuals/groups to be involved * Estimated number of man-hours for completion of this project * Estimated cost with break-up * Any other information you feel relevant. Last date for application is October 31, 2002. Feel free to pass around this note, particularly to students who could use such help productively.
