Microsoft is learning FOSS in global scenario with crazy aggressiveness and wants to secure good stake in rapid pace as well as sustainable engagement inside FOSS communities and foundations except http://www.openinventionnetwork.com to the safest level it feels. We can see the investments (sponsorship), projects (highest in Github) all around. Its impressive the way Microsoft is adapting FOSS for whatever reason behind, its upon them and its the freedom they can enjoy. (High Time).
*# Please jump to dotted line if you like hate comments only.#* Global community of FOSS is welcoming the move and is in the mode of wait and see. Same in Nepal as well. Avas Mulmi did visualize the laxman rekha which I also agree. Lets talk about organizing meet-ups and events collaboration and blame about FOSS Nepal ignorance to MIC. *Some thing what I learn as a FOSS member:* 1. FOSS Nepal member work on their own mood and interest around the norms of FOSS. When mood and interest combined then something interesting and crazy positive change happens. So does FOSS Nepal as everything happens in the melody. To collaborate we should be in this tune. Seems too much moody. 2. FOSS Nepal have moral supports for every events and communities who work around FOSS norms. If invited it will take part actively and contribute accordingly to the extent of its available resources. 3. Every community can have their own ideology regarding organizing events of their own and FOSS Nepal respects that. Members are free to join and participate to any level of those events, simply no objection. If they are participating as FOSS Nepal member, FOSS Norms are to be respected by the beholder. 4. FOSS Nepal can collaborate to any one who believes in the norms of FOSS. For specific interest they can match themselves with the members from the FOSS spectrum (Model) they are in and communicate accordingly. 5. FOSS Nepal doesnot focus in a single community. ie. GNU/Linux * - Red Hat / Ubuntu / Chitwanix / LTSP / Mozilla / Android / Wordpress / Joomla / PHP / Open Street Map / College Community / ...... / M$ etc. Every one are the part of FOSS spectrum in which level of Freedom they believe in. 6. FOSS Nepal exist upto now because of its norms and the way it behaves. Monetary and Physical resources were never the barrier to organize events and meetups. So does BSOD are popular for larger to small level events. Every event are planned to be organized with free entrance and participation with no hidden fees. 7. FOSS Nepal can't compromise its major events for the sake of other community events. *Ignorance to MIC by FOSS Nepal* *1. SFD ignorance - * Every member was busy around to make sfd 2016 successful event. And there are lots of things to do in regular basic rather than giving one community event priority. In every sfd, expectation are high from the community member about the event. I haven't heard NOSK/OSM/OSAC/FOSS Chitwan complaining FOSS Nepal is ignoring their event. They organize their events in parallel some time collaborating to each other. Again depends upon the mood melody. *2. Developer Meetup Case happening right now: * - Seems the bsod meetup was discussed by POC and venue time was fixed already with whatever resource available and event was called. This is not the ignorance to MIC neither to other community. Even if MIC member or participant want to participate, they are welcome. - I haven't seen any official invitation from MIC developer meetup organizer for FOSS Nepal or any information from POC about the MIC event, So picking the same word, ignorance came from MIC. In our words communication gap from MIC. *For Future Events:* A. Invite us formally on mailing list (1-2 Week Prior to Event) or you can discuss with any of the POC. Find details in FOSS Nepal website. B. Describe FOSS Nepal role in your event and how we can help you to make your event successful. Please remember to be around FOSS norms. C. To be the part of FOSS Nepal events, please follow our mailing list regularly for upcoming events. Participate as in any Level as participant, presentation, stalls, sponsor, supporter. POC will also contact appropriate community for the events. D. Co-Organizing: I haven't heard about ever FOSS Nepal became co-organizer any where other events. I hope in future it will if the event is under full FOSS Norms. E. Resource Person from FOSS Nepal. Generally every one is available for free on their free time as FOSS Nepal most program are fees less. Thanx for their generosity. Resource person have the freedom to deal this topic. (On my context I prefer 1 Mustang Coffee 1 qns. If paid event we can negotiate.) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- P.S.: Artha ko anartha nalagos.
