By now most of you have probably heard about the Asutosh College Linux Workshop that is to be held at Asutosh College at the end of April or early May. If you remember, there had been a posting by Indra-da (Indranil Das Gupta) on 11 March about this. Santanu and I had attended the HIT gathering and discussed with quite a few LUG members about this.
The proposed draft of the event is presented here. The planning is still in a preliminary stage. So everybody is welcome to make suggestions regarding incorporating any other topics. But obviously, the final choice to incorporate the same into the workshop will be upto the college authorities.
