Hi Ravi, It is great to hear that OpenJUMP is getting so much use in India. I wonder if it would be possible for us to see your mock exercises in some way. Perhaps your FOSS4G paper will contain this information. Personally, I do not have very broad experience with GIS outside of my own small area of interest (Facilities Management), and it would be very helpful in building future software features to see other ways OpenJUMP is used.
