My intention is to develop contacts of like minded people and when I checked with people who I knew they were not interested in CTF for me to build a team. There was one guy who joined me however was unable to continue since he had work. I have not changed the topic to [OT] since most of the work required in the CTF was done using GNU\LINUX. The CTF did enable me to learn about my strengths. -- Regards, Balasubramaniam Natarajan www.blog.etutorshop.com -- -- Mailing list guidelines and other related articles: http://lug-iitd.org/Footer --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Linux User Group @ IIT Delhi" group.
