FOSS Community Network, India or FOSSCOMM is fast becoming a nice platform for Indian FOSS activities!
FOSSCOMM's Principles and Objectives are 1. Belief in boundless knowledge, free/open software and free/open standards and their advantages for society 2. Work for the adoption and promotion of FOSS in Government policies as well as Industry 3. Promote FOSS only software in syllabus from primary to higher education 4. Encourage student commitment and contribution to FOSS 5. Publicly funded software and creative works should be accessible under free software or equivalent licenses 6. Resist hardware and software monopolies by using anti-competition laws (Hardware drivers and import policy) + free/open specifications + anti-bundling) This platform was initiated by some FOSS enthusiasts. We have not done any advertisement or invitation to the FOSS Communities yet. But we feel it is time to make a formal invitation to all communities and foss based companies to join FOSSCOMM. Though many FOSS players are already with us, we still feel the need to make a formal invitation where we can describe the current status of FOSSCOMM. So we would like to use this opportunity to formally invite you to be a part of FOSSCOMM and actively participate. A good starting point to learn about FOSSCOMM is our wiki http://fosscomm.in/ We hope you will also join our mailing list and participate in discussions. Lets build a strong platform for every member of Indian FOSS Community to participate. This is your community. Join us NOW!
