yes, we do have KOSTEM to manage thing that related to money but what i must say is, it is more to community first this is an idea a kickstart it doesnt mean to be perfect
i just assume that we can create or callobrate with hackerspacekl place for an example run the activities there, for an installation demo without fees. im sorry to say, but one of the main reason me myself didnt join hackerspace event because it require money it is burden for us, student rm15 could mean a lot even it is just to sincere donate, but could you just enter without donate a bit? i didnt have courage to do such things even i do have interest in joining it all my words below to show current things from the side of me as student what do student need? those who have interest in learning OSS so this is my suggestion: can we rent hackerspace place for example and create simple event? introduction to OSS and intallation demo trust me, installation to make a dual boot could be complicated for a basic user me myself strugle at the beginning mostly in partition the hdd and yes, we do need internet connection i agree on it rent place and invite all no cost at the starting event we can make this event as a way to determine how many will 'sahut' this call it should not cost a lot rite? just try call anyone, maybe a group of student or any newbie that show interest could also try to reach nearest school/society even only 10 person will come at first event, i think that is alredy big improvement if the geographical place is the obstacle, so i would to suggest if i organize it at my place currently in ipoh, perak. i do have friends, but little it is not quantity that we are seeking for right? quality is much important need person that can commit but of course the event will need help of the community since me myself lack of OSS knowledge the event just needed to be official and supported by OSDC this is my suggestion, i do think it will need lot of critism and modification but i talk as a student, as my point of view of newbie in this OSS world do free to talk direct to me On Apr 6, 2:53 am, riZer Enterprise <[email protected]> wrote: > come onla slaya don't be so cruel. install fest is a good thing. i > would support any install fest that you might want to firestart. the > question now is it possible to ask for money or for a fee so that we > could pay the rent e.g. club, internt, drinks bla, bla bla...... > or better yet if we could get paid like hourly for our penat lelah > installing them the linux.
