When I graduated in 2002, there was the slump and there were more anxious faces on Campus (REC, Durgapur) than I had ever seen. But after having been somewhat involved with DeepRoot Linux (www.deeproot.co.in) earlier, it was natural for me to join DeepRoot, Campus or no Campus. Though I stayed there for only about 6 months (followed up with co-founding a Company, and have moved on to co-founding a new secretive Internet Start-Up), I learned like hell in those 6 months. (Apologies for the feeling of deja-vu) I could point out a few companies you could possibly try: DeepRoot Linux (www.deeproot.co.in) Netcore (www.netcore.co.in) Exocore (www.exocore.com) which are Indian and purely Linux Companies. Novell India and RedHat India are nice choices and are easier to get in touch with, I believe. HP. Oracle, IBM do have work on Linux. Google India, Yahoo India, Amazon India as pointed out earlier. Also keep a track of [COMMERCIAL] anouncements in the mailing lists you are subscribed to. > Remember the old adage, "A hacker does for love what others would not do > for money". > Very True. You need to strike a balance between what you want to do and how much do you need to remain alive and kicking. All the best for a future with "Real Programming". -Animesh -- Animesh Bansriyar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://blogs.neolinuxsolutions.com
