Hello FOSSians, I completely agree with Everest and all others about the idea of using the event to promote FOSS and open source.
Few days ago we had received similar thread in Mozilla Nepal mailing list. Credits to the tweet thread started by Amit as Nikesh mentioned. As a part of Mozilla Nepal community I/we discarded the opportunity/request because in a certain line it says, "contribute a minimum of fifteen (15) participants attending the event." If we at FOSS Nepal are going to going to participate, how are we going to meet the demand. Are we going to mail our volunteers and say that they "must" attend the event? Here at FOSS we don't do that. We are FREE people for a reason (because we love and enjoy FREEdom). If the organizer wants diversity in his event and wants to invite us let us ask him to remove any clauses and let us participate in the FREEly. P.S. यो मेरो निजी बिचार हो। यदि मेरा अग्रजहरूलाई मैले नचाहिदो कुरा गरेँ जस्तो लाग्यो भने, मलाई सम्झाई बुजाई माफ गरिदिनु होला। With Regards Surit Aryal Mozilla Nepal Representative Open Source Enthusiast 2016-08-03 0:06 GMT+05:45 Laxmihari Nepal <[email protected]>: > Hi All, > > I too agreed with Everest thoughts.
