I feel good regarding meeting. We should start to take up various aspect of FOSS in such type of meeting.  1 : At ground level 2 : At organization level 3 : At Technical level We has two presentation in this meeting One is on phython, One is on Debian. We all seen as technical person with our specs. That's natural, the next step to see at Application level with analysis , i.e. with reference to student, with reference to profession.....etc.. Make out the points very positively which have good out come. ...... Guarav tried Koha with Debian and Piyush tried with cent OS. In spite of taking stand of our experience, here we should share the experience to be cooperative. Our FOSS concept is depend up already developed thing. We should thing little be creative without professional aspect.  On 12/27/2010 06:55 PM, Abhishek Nandakumar wrote: To tone down tempers a bit and to reduce the number of emails I'm getting about what's essentially a non-issue let me point out that yesterday's event was great. Unfortunately though we were still promoting ideologies that most of us present there were already pretty aware of. The problem is of course that since all of us are beyond that stage and have already decided what is good or bad for us, at the end of the day we lacked a sense of achievement because what we did was no different from what we do in front of people who are unaware about FOSS. I believe these meetups are good but they need not have a single direction. A set of people could decide to do one thing, another can decide to do another. Each group of people may simultaneously work on different things and that could still be called a successful meetup. The aim is to get work done. When you say we're the people who need to organise an event of the scale of FOSS.IN/Freed.in, you're right. But then we don't want that to simply be just another random FOSS event where the same things are discussed for years together. FOSS goes beyond the small problems that a person would discuss in something like a workshop introducing Linux to people. We're all beyond that stage. And we probably need someone to remind us. -- l...@iitd - http://tinyurl.com/ycueutm
