Dear Nama ji, Diwash ji and other FOSSians, Wonderful suggestions. Yes, we are planning to meet this weekend (Possible Saturday or Sunday" TO BE FInalized) at ANY VENUE possible. We would be happy if some College lead or other FOSSians could invite us to their college during this weekend for this meeting. In this meeting, we will look forward to finalize the theme as possible. For this meeting, if we could have some local team members to talk would be great as per you timing and schedule preference. Also, few other team members from other FOSS Communities will join in their college/school as appropriate.
Just in case, we DO NOT receive any invitation from any college to call FOSS Nepal team members for this BRIEF FOSS talk and SFD Preparation meeting, than we will call the meeting at the FOSS Nepal Office (Putalisadak) during this weekend. Time and date to come later. Further, we are planning to make a outreach program to ALL OTHER COLLEGES / School possible for these FOSS Talk (30 Minutes) followed by SFD 2012 Preparation meeting (60 Minutes) in other places as well. These events will help us to meet new members in Kathmandu as well as other cities in Out of Kathmandu Valley. Till the time, we have been learning about interest from our FOSS Community members from Pokhara, Chitwan and Dharan as well. Also there seems some new possibilities this time from Butwal and Nepalgunj. In these meetings, we will look forward to meet with new team members of FOSS. We plan to talk about FOSS and its importance (kind or orientation for new users : 30 Minutes) followed by SFD Preparation meeting (60 Minutes) at the same venue with same audience joined by others from other FOSS Communities. The updates will be documented in the wiki page: http://wiki.fossnepal.org/index.php?title=SFD_Celebration_2012 Looking forward to have more proposals and invitation from our College coordination team members.
