I will raise an objection again about this being cross-posted to hell and back. Please note that I am trimming follow-ups to the groups that I am subscribed to. Are you seriously expecting people from Delhi, Goa, Kolkata, Kanchi, and wherever else to drop everything, and rush to ELCOT's rescue? I will ask again: Did anyone try to contact the (supposedly) active Chennai LUG before spamming all and sundry? > We have to arrange for a seminar and publicity it. > > A userguide may be helpful. > > How to start? > > It is a wonderful opportunity. [...] I again strongly disagree. From the facts described in this thread (maybe there are more details that we are unaware of), ELCOT went ahead, and did this without planning, or even trying to engage anyone in the FOSS community. If that is indeed the case, I do not see how a volunteer community is responsible for their mismanagement. From what I see, at best, the Chennai LUG could decide that this is something worthwhile, and get involved. If this happens, then further collaborations can grow out of contacts from within the Chennai LUG. Sorry for the vehemence, but of late I am seeing all to many cases of government institutions expecting people to automatically fall into line with *their* plans.
