Read a report of the event here - http://www.barcampkerala.org/blog/?p=121 How much of Microsoft activities are presented there ? Infact there was a person who came to the barcamp with a vista preinstalled laptop, and wanted to remove it and install ubuntu. http://www.kenneyjacob.com Kenney Jacob On Sun, Dec 14, 2008 at 8:33 AM, Arun M <[email protected]> wrote: > > I am not able to follow this discussion much.
