Yes, in Pokhara also we want to celebrate. But there is a small problem. In 2006, we combined SFD with GCES IT Mahotsav and were having FOSS as the main theme of IT Mahotsav then. At that time, it was in the first week of September, so we just celebrated SFD one week before the actual date. But, this year, the GCES IT Mahotsav will be from July 24th to 26th. Due to various other problems/clashes with other dates, we couldn't plan it for September. Anyway, FOSS will be one of the major focus areas during GCES IT Mahotsav. And more people, school children (8th to 12th class) will be coming to GCES IT Mahotsav. So, we may just go ahead and focus on FOSS awareness during the IT Mahotsav itself as it will have more audience. Please feel free to give any ideas, suggestions, etc. regarding FOSS awareness during GCES IT Mahotsav and also the possibility of having another program during September for SFD. regards, Prasanna David --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ FOSS Nepal mailing list: [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/foss-nepal To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Community website: http://www.fossnepal.org/ -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
