Today (13th) is the last day of LinuxAsia 2004. As you'd no doubt recall, ILUG-Delhi has a strong presence out there -- despite being relegated to the stall furthest from the ``real'' action, we're seeing more visitors than probably all the other exhibitors put together! So what're we doing at the ILUGD stall? We're playing loud music. We mainly do 60s and 70s rock, but old Hindi is also available on request :) I mention this because a gentleman from another, nearby stall popped in yesterday and said words to the effect of ``Thanks for the music, otherwise we'd have been very bored out here'' We're selling CDs. We currently have Knoppix 3.3, Fire 0.4, GnuWinII and Mandrake. Plan to get Fedora Core 1 (3-CD set) today. We've sold tons of CDs so far, and given away not a few. Kapil is managing the CD sales, and he's henceforth given the title ``Supreme CD Sales Generalissimo for Life'' in ILUG-Delhi. We're giving demos of Linux to visitors. If Sudev were selling anything he'd be a millionaire by now -- he's so busy demonstrating and discussing LTSP and Linux in the Office that he doesn't even get time to eat lunch! AshLin stands near the entrance of the stall and charms visitors into having a look, and you know what they say, one look and they're hooked. We're pledging support to educational and government institutions who visit the stall. Expect a long list of TODOs once the event is over - -- we've committed to propagating Linux and Free Software all over India, from Almora to Ahmedabad. And, of course, in Delhi. We're having a ball! The days have passed by in a haze of activity, and the evenings in a haze of food and alcohol. So come on, visit the stall up to 2pm today and buy a couple of CDs, talk to some people, make a convert, join the festivities. And while you're there, don't forget to give a special thanks to the people who made this possible. You will get the whole list, but for now let me mention (to the best of my abilities, which are nearly 0 at 0800) those who have selflessly (well, OK, for a couple of samosas) and fearlessly stood up and been counted: Amitabh Anirban AshLin Kapil Kishore Mairu Mary Pankaj Sudev Viksit Vivek Please give a large hand to these folks. If our LUG has managed to achieve anything, it is because of people like you and your unflagging enthusiasm. ...and if I've inadvertently missed you out, please forgive -- extra samosa on me for you today, and maybe even a free cup of tea :) Regards, - -- Raju - -- Raj Mathur [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://kandalaya.org/ GPG: 78D4 FC67 367F 40E2 0DD5 0FEF C968 D0EF CC68 D17F It is the mind that moves -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Processed by Mailcrypt 3.5.6 and Gnu Privacy Guard <http://www.gnupg.org/> iD8DBQFALDW4yWjQ78xo0X8RAtrBAKCWvjZPKtLcL+cBTb026FjsbrQVCgCePUql IiYqqGITd2+2QIQLeWe+FV4= =E3Mg -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ ilugd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd _______________________________________________ ilugd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd
