people know about and FOSS and spread it.

For example
In my college days some of my juniors took an initiative to upload class
notes to their blogs. The purpose was to spread class notes to those who are
not much studious and fail to get it from their teachers. Still no much
people visited their blogs. It just reduced the efforts of studious
students. Then they took one print out and photocopied it and gave it to few
peoples. They spread it further to other students those who wanted it. The
result was 92% pass next semester. Only 5 people got arrears in that class.
 This will be the case of FOSS too if it is on paper.
