Dear Friends,
Below you have the contents of a mail that I sent to RamKrishna
Mission to encourage use
of Free and Open Source software across Ramkrishna Mission ,and also in the
schools and collages
run by the institutions.
Across the nations and abroad Ramkrishna Mission runs a
large number of schools and
collages and also has a university under it ,the people of RKM are not only
highly learned in
spiritual subjects but also science and technology.So encourging the use of
Free and Open Source
software in that institutions will create a large number of future software
coders and open source enthusiasts
right from schools and collages.I want inputs and ideas regarding what else
can I talk about in the meeting with
them all ideas are welcome .
FOSS zindabad,
Rakesh

Dear Swami Vimalatmanandji,
Namaskar
Thanks for hearing me patiently and answering my queries
last sunday
when I visited Ramkrishna Mission.The work that was started by our beloved
Swami
Vivekananda has been continued pretty well by RKM.
Ramkrishna Mission over the years have successfuly built large
number of
schools and collages and it now also has an University under it a large
number of
students who come out of RKM are today doing very well in their respective
fields.
In this great chain of knowledge flow I urge you to adopt Free and Open
Source Software
in education and work of your institution.The use of free and open source
software like LINUX
not only has lots of advantages but also will provide great platform for
your students,teachers
and also the sanyasis themselves with programming ,mathamatics and science
backgrounds to be
a part of the Free Software Movement and develop great products not only
for themselves but also for the rest of the world.
The following links will be useful

Considering the knowledge levels of RKM people you may already be aware of
it or may even have done lots of work on it ,but just in case you are not
do consider using it .
Thanks and regards,
Rakesh Mallick
