Dear Members, The Pycon India 2009 held recently at IISC, Bangalore was wonderfully organized and our ilugc members Kenneth and Others had given wonderful Talks. The registration fee was minimal. Food, T-shirt and CD's were given due to the sponsors active contribution. FOSSEE group of IITB also distributed T-shirt and LivePython DVD (Ubuntu). Only thing i found negative, it was ill-timed(festival days).
I got the http://in.pycon.org link from ilugc mailing list. I sent the same to my third year students yahoogroup . Nearly 28 students from my college participated on their own. Of course hardly 12 of them were really serious enough. Previously, when ilugc arranged seminars/workshop on networks and virtualization, hardly one student used to accompany me. Surely, there is winds of change in my college. Last year, I influenced my higher ups to take FOSS elective subject. This year we hope to take it again.
