Dear all, I am working in Sarai. Presently I am in Calcutta. I am trying to organise a Linux introductory workshop with my friends. I have planned it for 18th and 19th. Being an artist myself and as Sarai is majorly working on digital art and documentary, I was here to develop a network with people of similar interests.
Few of my friends are interested in Linux and wanted know more about it. Also I have few friends who are interested in using Linux. Thus I planned for this workshop. As I don't have any machine in Calcutta, I tried to hire few. But yesterday the person who was supposed to supply the machines refused to provide any. Suddenly I find myself in a soup. Today I got a mail from Sayamindu [I contacted him regarding Bangla-Penguin project], I discussed this issue with him and he suggested writing to Lug-Cal for help. The idea about the workshop is - To talk about Linux and its possibilities - Demonstration of installation of Linux - Sarai will show and talk about its LAP project - Demo of utility software like Open Office, Gimp & other applications like PHP, MYSQL, Greenstone etc. Location is Keyatala, Camp Office, just Opposte to Lalit Kala Studios. Timing is 1.30pm to 6.30pm. I think I need two or three computers for this purpose. I shall be grateful if someone could arrange computers for the workshop. If someone could do something please call me at 4169568 as I am staying at Patuli and nearest web- cafe is little far from my place.
