Hello Everyone, Just have a FOSS Community in various colleges for the sake of it doesn't really make sense to me. If they are not doing any thing to promote open-source in their college and not coming to participate in FOSS meetups, then I don't think they are doing their job. I would like to stress that the college representatives should be self-responsible and come to FOSS Meetups for discussion and participation.
Like we discussed in the last meetup, we must try to make every meetup fruitful and show that coming to a meetup is really making a difference. This will not only encourage other people to join in, but also make our community stronger. More people participating = More ideas = More work = Community gets better.
