Yesterday, I gave a talk on "Introduction to Free Software" at FirstPlanet.in (opposite to LIC building, Mount Road, Chennai)
Around 20 freshers attended the session. I explored the following stuff. GNU/Linux History Free Software Philosophies Ubuntu Linux Installation Partitioning tips Alternate applications Introduction to Commandline Installing applications Intro to ILUGC They are organising these kind of workshops/session regularly for fresher. Wondered to know that their main business is to provide support, customizations for the open source enterprise applications compiere, http://www.compiere.com openbravo, http://www.openbravo.com pentaho http://community.pentaho.com for around 4 years. They are interested in ILUGC activities and they are happy to provide place for any events. Already they host the java user groups meeting and chennai astronomy group meetings. I invited the CTO to give a talk at ILUGC meet on running business with open source software. I thank for the firstplanet.in team for their great services. -- Regards, T.Shrinivasan My Life with GNU/Linux : http://goinggnu.wordpress.com Free E-Magazine on Free Open Source Software in Tamil : http://kaniyam.com Get CollabNet Subversion Edge : http://www.collab.net/svnedge _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc ILUGC Mailing List Guidelines: http://ilugc.in/mailinglist-guidelines
