Dear Professor I am writing to you in the context of a survey we are conducting on the extend of usage of FOSS (Free/Open Source Software) in the Computer Science and IT Departments in the Higher Education Institutions in India. We are requesting the Heads of Departments of CS/IT/MCA of selected colleges to participate in this survey by filling in a questionnaire that is available at: http://au-kbc.org/survey/index.php?sid=36216. This survey is being carried out as a part of the NRCFOSS (National Resource Centre for FOSS) Project being funded by the Dept. of Inf. Tech., Govt. of India, and coordinated by C-DAC Chennai. The queries in this survey are grouped into four heads under which we seek information pertaining to the use of FOSS in your department, and it should take you only about 30-40 minutes to complete the process. While full anonymity will be maintained about the respondents and their responses, NRCFOSS plans to recognise and reward the top five departments who score the highest marks in the survey. I do hope that you will contribute to this study by spending a few minutes of your valuable time in clicking on the above link and filling up the questionnaire there in. Considering the rather short time available, we request you to please oblige with your response latest by Wednesday the 20th April.2011,please. If you require any clarifications or elaborations on any aspect of this activity, please feel free revert to us. Thank you very much for your cooperation and support. With regards Prof. C N Krishnan ([email protected]) Coordinator, NRCFOSS/AU & Program Director, AU-KBC Research Centre Anna University Chennai -- Mohit Singh ------------------ -- LUG@IITD - http://lug-iitd.org/Footer
