"The trek wanders into Pilicode, GHSS. After initial hesitation, the
staff is extremely co-operative, and organize and impromptu talk to
the students. Anoop and Sooraj speak to the assembly of senior
classes, while Prasad fiddles with the printer configurations for the
[EMAIL PROTECTED] lab printer. Interestingly, the Gnome interface isn't in
Malayalam, and the teachers seem to be clueless about how to configure
the login session. There seem to be gaps in the support infrastructure
for [EMAIL PROTECTED], hopefully this gap will close in, as the scheme
matures. Once again, contact information is exchanged, of the Kasargod
fsug, and the procession plods on under the fierce heat."

I hope some of you can join them when they reach Palakkad. I hope to
see Free Software User Groups activated in all parts of Kerala by the
time they finish the walk.

Chennailug can also take a clue from the walk and think about some
thing similar. How do we reach to every nook and corner of Tamil Nadu?
How do we reach out to more schools and colleges? How can we use
technology to increase awareness about Free Software and other social
issues to even more people. Anoop and the Freedom Walk team has set an
excellent example and I hope to see similar initiatives from other
parts of the country.

Cheers
Praveen
