Freed.in was a conference for and by the India Linux Users Group - ILUG . It usually has only techno-geeks talking about FOSS. This time we decided to intrude and enable FOSS and OER on the same plaform, particularly due to the parallel philosophy - the essential freedoms, Creative Commons, use of FOSS etc.. There were three presentations based on WE - one by me, the other by Gita and Promilla and the third by the English Honours Group at Deen Dayal Upadhyaya College. = a few eyebrows were raised, but on the whole the audience realised there was sense in such integration. In effect we brought about a radical change - the FOSS community were forced to started thinking about on what FOSS can achieve in areas beyond software!! I am thankful to Niyam Bhushan, a FOSS evangelist ( who has been coming in to WE workshops for talks on FOSS, and CC) who coerced us to participate.
AND college also had a presentation in FOSS - students had also fun volunteering for the event!!! :) see *freed.in* for more details.
