Actually, you are the inspiration Nagarjun. The seeds sown at that first lug meet were the key. It has grown into a giant ecosystem now. Until then I never had a clue in hell about the political machinations that tech companies are upto. Almost everyone at the time thought that technology evolved merely in response to the market. End user rights were so thoroughly obliterated in the computing world, that most people did not even know they had any rights. The exact same conditioning is observed in the current battle with the UIDAI and the government in the context of data and privacy..
The fun filled journey continues, all thanks to you organising those first meets.
I was pleasently surprised to see a very fimiliar name on list of petitioners in the ongoing Aadhaar case in SC. Thank you for taking up this cause on behalf of rest of us citizens.
