Talk 2: Django - An Introdution Speaker : Thejaswi Puthraya Duration: ~1Hr Abstract: Link: http://www.djangoproject.com/ To the freshman's, who planned to attended this month ilug meet (seminiar), It would be more beneficary if you do some ground work before you attend the talk, since I felt the same when i attened a workshop on asterix a few months back. To understand Django, we people need to know basics of Pyhton programming. Same way let we ask Vijay to share with us the prerequestite for the DocBook. Do your home work, before a workshop and you feel the difference. good luck.

[Ilugc] Fwd: [eGovINDIA] IAS officer faces wrath, shifted again
Hi friends, This is what Uma shankar IAS said on his transfer...I want to share it with our LUG friends :) -- Forwarded message -- From: Umashankar C umashank...@yahoo.com Date: Tue, Feb 10, 2009 at 9:48 PM Subject: Re: [eGovINDIA] IAS officer faces wrath, shifted again To: egovin...@yahoogroups.com 10th Feb Dear friends, I saw the postings on my latest transfer today only I am accustomed to lightning transfers. Transfers cannot affect my morale. I am in a parking lot now, like the way I was parked in Tamil Nadu Industrial Investment Corporation Limited for a while. The Government would call me again to do some difficult assignment. But the resolve is firm - will work straight only. No role for corruption or deviations from public interest. I am enjoying my present postings which has no target (small savings target). 15 minutes every alternate day is the job content. I am seriously learning high definition video editing. Intend to commence a write up on my experience in each posting. It would make an interesting story for youngsters. The moral of the story is that when the Government gives a heavy assignment, enjoy doing it. And when it chooses to provide an assignment which has no job content or very less job content, learn to enjoy it too. Sort of a paid holiday after a hectic assignment. I am enjoying my present posting. Regards C.Umashankar IAS., (TamilNadu Cadre) e-governance Specialist Commissioner of Small Savings Chennai, Tamilnadu India Co-Moderator: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/eGovINDIA Mankind deserves open standards and open source software. Only the chosen ones get its taste. Others just hear the taste.

Uma Shankar has set a record of sorts. His transfer last Friday to the Small Savings department from the post of Managing Director of Arasu Cable TV Corporation was the fourth in just six months. Said to be an efficient, tech-savvy officer and known for his role in developing and promoting e-governance, he has been credited with the introduction of open source software during his brief stint in ELCOT (Electronics Corporation of Tamil Nadu Limited). His transfer order came a day after the officer told the media in Vellore that it would be better for the State to take over the Sumangali Cable Vision (SCV). The officer was also critical of the damage caused allegedly by the SCV to the Arasu Cable TV infrastructure in some parts of the state. Earlier, Mr Uma Shankar was said to have been transferred from ELCOT after he found fault with an errant IT firm that was run by a person with connections. The officer also incurred the wrath of colleagues for publicly voicing his views against the alleged discrimination of Dalits. The story of bureaucrat turned politician Sivakami is no different. Never in the good books of the government for long, she was constantly transferred and posted to insignificant jobs. http://www.deccanch ronicle. com/chennai/ ias-officer- faces- wrath,-shifted- again-917http://www.deccanchronicle.com/chennai/ias-officer-faces-wrath,-shifted-again-917 Submitted by P.N.Premalatha (not verified) on Tue, 03/02/2009 - 10:30pm. It is not good for the government if it punishes the sincere officers who devote their time for the welfare of the state.It will definitely encourage corruption ,fraud and maladministration .Govt.must set a good example. __._,_.___ Messages in this topic http://groups.yahoo.com/group/eGovINDIA/message/11493;_ylc=X3oDMTM3b3M5NGxyBF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzE0OTE4MTM5BGdycHNwSWQDMTcwNTQ0NDUyNQRtc2dJZAMxMTUxMARzZWMDZnRyBHNsawN2dHBjBHN0aW1lAzEyMzQyODI3MjYEdHBjSWQDMTE0OTM-( 2) Reply (via web post) http://groups.yahoo.com/group/eGovINDIA/post;_ylc=X3oDMTJyOXY2cmUwBF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzE0OTE4MTM5BGdycHNwSWQDMTcwNTQ0NDUyNQRtc2dJZAMxMTUxMARzZWMDZnRyBHNsawNycGx5BHN0aW1lAzEyMzQyODI3MjY-?act=replymessageNum=11510| Start a new topic http://groups.yahoo.com/group/eGovINDIA/post;_ylc=X3oDMTJma3ByYm8zBF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzE0OTE4MTM5BGdycHNwSWQDMTcwNTQ0NDUyNQRzZWMDZnRyBHNsawNudHBjBHN0aW1lAzEyMzQyODI3MjY- Messageshttp://groups.yahoo.com/group/eGovINDIA/messages;_ylc=X3oDMTJmYWljaDk3BF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzE0OTE4MTM5BGdycHNwSWQDMTcwNTQ0NDUyNQRzZWMDZnRyBHNsawNtc2dzBHN0aW1lAzEyMzQyODI3MjY-| Fileshttp://groups.yahoo.com/group/eGovINDIA/files;_ylc=X3oDMTJnbGRkNWtkBF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzE0OTE4MTM5BGdycHNwSWQDMTcwNTQ0NDUyNQRzZWMDZnRyBHNsawNmaWxlcwRzdGltZQMxMjM0MjgyNzI2|
