Dear Aadesh, and All, Wonderful, for planning these stall,(which we are planning to be the welcoming stall) we will require around 6-7 laptops running these applications (FOSS for Education) with respective volunteers as well to showcase/demonstrate it to the visitors/guests. Can we start managing / arranging for the same?
