Hello all,

Sarai [1] is planning a hands on workshop at MNIT Jaipur [2] on
14th-15th of November which will be sponsored by NIXI [3]. The
workshop will be fully technical and will involve teaching software
development in various disciplines. The expected audience has already
heard about Open Source several times and they want to get their hands
dirty instead of hearing more about the philosophy.

Possible topics that I can think of right now:

1. Python Introduction
2. Using Django to develop sites
3. Possibly Drupal Module Development
4. Very basics of Kernel (using driver development maybe)
5. There were several requests for socket programming
6. Game development using open source engines (Pygame?)

Workshop is expected to be of two days. All hands on topics will be
preceded by a general install fest.

I would like to extend an invitation to ILUGD members to come forth
with suggestions and actually join us at the workshop and help in
presenting hands on topics of your choice.

A note on why you would want to come:
1. Travel and stay for two days is free of cost (sponsored by us).
2.  A chance to travel to Jaipur on a weekend. :)
3. And as usual, a chance to give back to the community.

I'll make a wiki page on the ILUGD site if the response is good. This
will also help nurture the growth of the newly born LUG Jaipur.

Thanks and Kind Regards
Nandeep Mali
