Sometime Today, Kapil Karekar assembled some asciibets to say:
I have an idea. Why don't we form ourselves into groups on the 25th of August and visit engineering college campuses around Mumbai. We could spread awareness about Linux among students and answer their queries about Linux.
Sounds good. The 25th is a Saturday, which means many engineering colleges will be closed. Some offices will also be closed. What this means is that the college administration will not object to a talk. It also means that many students may be reluctant to attend.
as it is a third Saturday it wont be a holiday in most colleges (degree engineering). i could speak to ppl in my college, Fr crce bandra.
but what sort of talk would it be .. awareness or somthing ... (that would be nice) .. no agenda ppl who dont use linux have a thousand questions about it !
pls suggest
If we're just going to answer queries, then it shouldn't take too long. Maybe an hour or two. We'll have to inform students well in advance for them to get all their queries listed out and ready to ask us.
How many people are ready to visit colleges on the 25th?
