  Dear all

 I just plan to deploy ticketing system at are end where our co-ordinator
 will enter day to day calls on the system and end of the day team leader
 will get full details of calls and field engineers status.


 For that I am searching opensource solution. At present I've tried with
 OTRS and VTIGER but there i need to change so many thing in front end.


yes you would need to change to suite your business reuirements , either
you can do it yourself or pay someone to do it for you.

even the developers who would be doing these changes need to understand the
flow, again you may document the flow and give it to developers or do it
yourself.



 Here I am talking about approx 60 users, 2 Zone, 4 Team, 4 team leaders,
 and other then that field engineers who get calls from office or Team
 leaders.


yes these are the kind of details you need to capture before you begin
making changes.

  Since there was no clue given about which store is The ASUS store , so i
  tried my luck with at least three different places where the name of
  ASUS was mentioned ,one of them prominently only dealt in ASUS so i
  presumed this to be the  store Ubuntu folks have mentioned , this store
  did not  have Ubuntu based Netbooks at all also he tried to lure me into
  giving discounts on Windows pieces and offered me some DOS based
  versions but No Ubuntu was available with him, there were two other
  stores which had ASUS displayed only one of them agreed and offered
  Ubuntu based Netbooks .

 @ Mr. Satyaakam,

 Sorry, we could not share the store address. We are talking about ASUS
 Exclusive store @ Nehru Place. You can ask Sales Person to supply Eee PC
 Netbook with pre-installed Ubuntu, if it is not there. Here is the address.

 Eurotech Communication:-
 G-3,Raja House,30-31 Nehru Place

  Hello everyone,
 
  As a follow up to our Ubuntu in Retail, I have been asked by a
  store in Nehru Place, Delhi if we can showcase Ubuntu.
 
  Here is my thoughts, let me know what you guys think.
 
  * Have 1-2 community members at the store to demo Ubuntu.
  * Have them wear Ubuntu T-Shirts so people perceive it to be
professional.
  * Offer basic installation for free and charge for additional
services. This should compare with other services in Nehru
Place, where I believe you can go to a store and they will
fill your hard drive with all windows software :)
  * If the customer wants training then this can be offered at
their home at a fee.
 
  I am thinking we should offer similar services to what people are
  used to in the Windows world, I know this may not sound very
  comforting for some of us, but thats what people are used to ;-)
 
 
  Ubuntu cannot get success (in India) without the project like DebBundle



Since there was no clue given about which store is The ASUS store , so i

only one of them agreed and offered Ubuntu based Netbooks .

curiously found a Compaq desktop bundled with Red Flag Linux :-)

overall my experience not a good one like other Distro's in past so i will
let this case too for rest now.

 Thanks!! Satyaakam for pointing out my mistake. By using that word I
 just want to express the situation. Okay! sorry to everyone.


 1st reason for writing about this group on this mailing list is to get
 helps and suggestions from you people and happy to say that I have
 already started receiving helps and suggestions from you people.

 Why I have created this group??
 * Group shouldn't be bounded to any Distribution like fedora, Ubuntu, etc.


not possible , it will remain your dream , also you should know you do not
have time and energy even if you have how long will you doing it , any  way
we have been around and will be around to keep an eye on your thoughts.


 * Each and every year there are atleast 3/4 events conducted by wbut
 students. But both organisers and attendees face problem due to the
 lack of any common place. Few of the problems are:
 1. many students who want to attain these events missed out due to lack of
 news.


fossevents.in was conceived for the same purpose , talk about it work on it



 2. if there is any change in date or time then organiser can update
 the info on event's wiki (or web) page but if any attendee missed out
 those changes, will cause problems.
 3. lack of experienced volunteers.
 and many more.
 Also, a group like this will help to bring forward many hidden talents
 and at the same time, it will be helpful for Linux users.

  which means folks not on facebook can't join.
 +
  If you want to have some real service to the community,
  come out of facebook and other social networks to build the community.
 First, I have though about this. But later on talking with fedora
 guys, I found that there are already many groups created like this and
 almost all failed.
 Also, I couldn't find any free website i.e., providing wiki pages
 where anyone can write (information, FAQ, etc) about Linux and also
 providing mailing list. Ya! Group shouldn't be bounded to any
 Distribution like fedora, Ubuntu, etc.


ok here is my piece of advice like what others have said , you can
contribute by writing code , be it fedora , ubuntu or any other distro all
will get benefited also it will help you in your career  having said
that what you do today  will decide your future path ..

have a nice day , i am out of this thread.

 Dear All,

 Recently we have received a UGC grant to develop a local cell to increase
 access to higher education for persons with special needs (GOI initiated
 HEPSN). A substantial part of the grant (approx. 2 lakhs) consists of
 purchase of hardware and softwares for visually-challenged people.

 We have approached some of the market leaders of the IT segment and even
 niche software developers for visually-challenged, like Freedom Scientific.
 Shockingly their hardware-software bundles cost way more than usual IT
 set-ups. For them the term 'special' in this case, is same as they might
 have applied in case of architects, designers or other professionals.

 Under the circumstances, our only hope lies in Ubuntu or other FOSS
 solutions. A small minority in our college always wanted a gradual shift to
 Ubuntu or other Linux soluions; we have about 5 systems running on Ubuntu.
 So, those of you who are reading this email, either forward us to Ubuntu/
 FOSS solutions for visually-challenged or to people who might be developing
 such solutions.

 Best would be if there is among you anyone who develops such solutions for
 visually-challenged. Please let us know the ways to communicate to you so
 that we can consult you regarding hardware and software implementations
 under the scheme. We have paltry honororiam available under the grant-heads
 to nod to your gesture.

 Thanks to you all for enduring through a rather longish email.


also you should get in touch with KK , you can read more about him from here

 Hi Arjun,

 Sorry for the top post , however it is a reposne to the issue and not
 your mail per se.
 Strategy :


it still does not call for TOP post and we all  can hear you .



 First:
 I think rather than individual emails we need a large collective
 response , a single letter should be drafted and we should get this
 signed - digital signs with names and / or physically signed and this
 then should be posted to all the authorities. Thebiggest / seniromost
 ones as well. Post it registered.

 A copy of the letter should be posted to all / as many national and
 international LUG / OPen Source user groups. We can decide who posts
 to which list
 i can post to India GII (am CC'ing Arun Mehta, Vickram Crishna)

 A copy should be sent to IT / Software journalists to high light the
 issue. Again we can decie who posts where (i can post - alreafdy have
 cc'ed Fredrick Noromha. Send a copy of the mail to Linux for your.

 Also consult  leading open source and Linux advocates (Raj Mathur,
 Kishore Bhargava ) and linux friends (Vivek Iyyer)

 Who says that don't eulogize people as i have already stated on other
lists called FOSSCOM .


 Consult the FSF india people (any one on this list from there)


they have all ears for you.


 Second

 and we have to argue / protest on the basis of some facts. Not on
 emotion, argue the case - the economic, the proprietary nature is not
 conducive to freee learning and experimentation.

 Do some research on how and why other Univs adopted open source and
 contact them for more details and experience and use their arguements
 as well.

its very relevant anywhere to work as a team , the moment you start taking
