A meet is long overdue. The problem appears to be twofold - suitable site and suitable speakers! So I second Raj's suggestion to have a discussion fest at Dilli Haat. Some things needing discussion :-
What's fedora exactly about?
The BSA attempt to 'subvert' children and teachers!
The creeping attempts by commerce to take away our digital rights.
Are we as Indians actually capable of collaborating and coming up with some small eeny-weeny useful project...?
I volunteer to put up a Gnubie related meet in December at my home. Open-air. A machine in which we install Linux. Good chai and some snakes. I'd offer beer if you can get Microsoft or SCO to subsidise it ;-). Anyone willing to help me, I'd appreciate since I'm mostly a Linux squib! (Dont know what a squib is?...Go re-read your Harry Potter.
By the way, I'm downloading TLDP documents and files to burn on a CD as a quick ref. No need to spend good money/time for each person to do so. Just copy from the CD. I also thought to include...
umm, perhaps some tutorials, ebooks, Gutenberg...any ideas, folks?
Regards, Ashwin
PS - Oh yes, do flame me for using Hotmail and Outlook Express.

------------------- The BSA has mounted a campaign to justify their method of operation and of calling guys who copy as "thieves" or "pirates". They have mounted this campaign among school kids and teachers. They have got this certificate to be signed by school kids titled "The Cyber-Ethics Champion Code" and another pamphlet for teachers titled "Playing it Safe in Cyberspace". See at
