hi ppl, this guys still do linux ..... _______________________________________________ Burkina Faso LUG up and running The West African nation of Burkina Faso now has its first Linux User Group, despite being one of the poorest countries on Earth. The Association Burkinabe Utilisateurs des Logiciels Libres has 50 members, trained by local Linux gurus. Next time you are tempted to moan about the poor state of broadband in your area, consider that in the case of Burkina Faso, the entire country has to share one 4Mb pipe !!!! http://www.linuxandmain.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=292 _______________________________________________ Special Thanks to: daniel(a)linuxuser.co.uk india has better resources than these guys .... so can we finally realise our potential ?? bye, T __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

India IT club newsletter.... can we benefit from it??
by Gurpreet Singh 30 Nov '02

30 Nov '02

hello luggerz look at this http://www.geocities.com/tonysingh4u/Ind_IT_Club_Nletter.doc i came across this newsletter which comes from the Tokyo office of India Trade Promotion Organization(the organization which runs the pragati maidan in delhi, it also has an export promotion deptt). The compiler of this newsletter Mr. N.K. Sehgal is a close family friend of ours. I am not too sure about the audience of this newsletter but it must be going to the big export houses related to s/w exports in japan and india, and also to a few more people... now, i think i can convince mr sehgal to bail out some space for our GNU cause on his newsletter. but this comes at a later stage. ******************************************************************* ****i would like some of u experienced people to analyze the newsletter and try to determine if it can be a useful platform for us.******* **************************************************************** if u guys say that this shud be done, i'll **try** my part of convincing him. so go on people, the newsletter is up at http://www.geocities.com/tonysingh4u/Ind_IT_Club_Nletter.doc (now this is in M$ word format, dont flame me for that, i didnt make it :D) ________________________________________________________________ NIIT supports World Computer Literacy Day on 2nd December.

Commercial ILUG
by Amol Hatwar 30 Nov '02

30 Nov '02

Hi, Natrajan's information regarding ILUG Chennai sent a lot of my cells racing. I agree that free support is a good thing. But then what about the people whom we support that work for commercial organizations? Lets take a hypothetical case: Mr. A works for ABC Corp. who has investments in Linux in terms of development, support and even customers. Now Mr. A is a fresher and doesn't know GNU/Linux much... a Perl based project comes up, and then he runs helter skelter for help. Mr. Cool is cool with GNU/Linux and yes he knows Perl! Mr. Cool helps Mr. A out with difficulties... and ABC Corp doles the project out... because Mr. A completed it on time. Mr. A agined... ABC Corp. gained... what did Mr. Cool gain? Now I am not cool with that. Maybe I won't go with what ILUG Chennai does... but yes maybe we can charge support requests from commerical organisations. (That will help me tolerate those irritating signatures). Charging will also mean one more thing... people will look carefully at the list archives before winging something in. Regards, -ah

by Gurpreet Singh 30 Nov '02

30 Nov '02

hello this is regarding the talks on the "linux lunacy" trip to be held on the 22nd of dec. can a something be arranged in terms of debian?? a talk may be that wud make people get over the fear of those 7 big CDs , pick them up and start installing. Maybe something that says why debian is a better choice(i've just heard people saying this, no flames plz :D).. and if can also include a quick installation touches, it'd be great. any volunteers?? regards Gurpreet ________________________________________________________________ NIIT supports World Computer Literacy Day on 2nd December.
