We tried real hard to get someone to make a presentation with a Mac this time. But, sadly couldnt find someone rich enough. How do you propose we organise an unconference with 200 participants for two days, without sponsors. Pay from our pockets? But don't l...@iitd organisers refund rs. 20 (or probably Rs. 50) spent on buying cello tapes for an unconference at IITD from one of the volunteers pocket (read: Me). I apologize already for disturbing the dead. But you hit below the belt first! Now, that it feels good to be even, fact for you: the freeware was for students only and was the IDE for Flex, which is open source. I am not proud of what happened then - Adobe confusing the terms 'Free Software' and 'Freeware', intentionally or unintentionally - I dont know and I dont care, because 3 students used those tools to develop Flex apps and take them on further. Some good was done. Do you want to continue with l...@iitd initiatives vs OSScamp or come back to the original question, which I repeat was: What is the objective of all these efforts ?
