Please see the mail below. thanks Saurabh ---------------- Hi all, I had sometime back tried to install ubuntu on the desktop of a visually impaired student from Samarthanam since he was trying to use pirated versions of JAWS which is rather expensive on a pirated copy of windows. I shall pay him a visit again sometime soon... I floated a mail in a technical group asking bout new tools n got - http://larswiki.atrc.utoronto.ca/wiki/Software http://tuxmobil.org/mobile_blind.html I wish we cud get some of the geeks to come join hands with us (working on it! ;)). Wat better way to give back to the open source community and 'otherwise'? :) I think Sattva can use the theme - accessibility technology - and I wud personally like to help with the same and mebbe on open source initiatives in the social sector. Also for those interested in promoting Linux - A fest in Bangalore to promote Linux usage - Its a localization initiative which mainly promotes Kannada/Linux usage. Go through the details here: http://dev.sampada.net/GNU_Linux_Install_Fest PS: They want volunteers to install Ubuntu on people's laptops/systems :-) I m hoping to get some volunteers from there as well! :) have fun, Mynk
