Dear All, I think yesterday was a very good day for free software in blr. Multiple events happening at different places. There was a total of two public events by RMS with 2 book releases : FSFS book in kannada and the story of the slum computing center book written by folks from the slum community. I request somebody to write about their NLS experience which I heard was very interesting and the Kannada Bloggers event...which discussed the aspect of new media. There were two talks by Eben - one with Kannada Bloggers with HP Nadig , Kannada Wikipedia and one at the National Law school. All this has a lot of long term oppurtunities for the movement. However what I think is important is the value of the questions . It was very interesting experience when RMS answered the questions of folks from the slum computing center - AC3 - Ambedkar Computing Center . He also released the book 'The Future is Ours' RMS had a very clear understanding of dalit politics and Ambedkar in our context. He explained how free software fits in this context. Will post the questions and anwers separately. thanks senthil
