Would like to put them in touch with LUG / FOSS community members who could

[They might be closer to Kolhapur where Kenneth had initiated lots of
activities. But, for administrative purposes, they fall under Karnataka
universities. We could also use them to initiate introduction of FOSS in
curriculum in these universities, reach out to more colleges, etc.]

Would welcome contact info and other suggestions.
thanks and best wishes

a google group is made avilable only for those with google account...

The ILUG-Bangalore is as of now an enthusiasts and discussion group and 
we are pretty new to get involved in such things. It would be a better 
idea to involve FSUG Bangalore in this as they have more physical 
presence and have been quite involved with academic community in 
Bangalore. I will cross post this into FSUG list.

thanks for the help. some of the FSUG members might be from Belgaum area (or
have some interest).

from my personal experience -- at FOSS as well as ealier community
activities --  it helps to identify one or two persons and use them as
initial contact points. [Kenneth often teases me that I interact only with
Raman  Bharathi!]. Their initial task might be to nurture the local
community in the college, bring out a couple of persons who could (become
FSUG members and) then take over the coordination, interacting with FSUG and
other groups.

[Ilugc] Little probs with a googlegroups with a non-gmail account...

2008-10-17 Thread Sri Ramadoss M
Hi,

I am changing the thread from ILUG - Bangalore... Say I want to join a
public mailing list, lets have ILUG and ILUG Bangalore..

http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc I visit this and
simply give my email address and later at some point of time check my
inbox to confirm..

But what does the public URL of ILUG Bangalore lead to?

Go to http://groups.google.com/group/ilug-bengaluru/ and Join this
group, it asks me sign in with google account.. Yes non-gmail account
holders can sign but only by sending e-mails...

Second thing, I have noticed is when I think of changing the mail
delivery options..

Every mail id subscribed to a mailman based list is by itself a
account, a subscriber can log in and change his mail delivery
options.. But with google groups? So far my experience about the
option available with a googlegroup is to send mail to the moderator
only.. there can be work-arounds.. are there other ways?

there are several other small  inconveniences that I have faced.. this
may equally apply to yahoogroups etc., also

where there is no way, well googlegroups/ yahoogroups or whatever may
be afforedable can give solution.. but?

I read kernel code, but not yet an expert. For me the real difference 
lies in the architecture which is very different. Linux supports more 
features than Unix. Linux has been the start for many advanced features 
which others where reluctant to include in their kernel. For more 
in-depth kernel related questions you should seek kernel-newbies mailing 
list.

I am computer literate! I have 22yrs in computer systems engineering

you acknowledge you provided free of charge? I consider this
hacking. I have no fear of the media, in fact I welcome this

[Ilugc] Barcamp Chennai 2. In IIT Madras.

2008-10-17 Thread Vijay S Anand
Hi Everyone,

Barcamp Chennai, the second coming, is happening this weekend in IIT Madras in 
ICSR Auditorium. Do apologize for the late notice, but if there are folks 
who'd like to participate, share, and conduct a session or two on things they 
have learned, discovered (or invented tsk tsk) they are more than welcome to. I 
guess the official mantra of the Barcamp has become that No one is barred from 
sharing.

If you are interested, do visit www.barcampchennai.org, for more details and 
for entering your name.

Hope to see some of you passionate folks there.

Vijay Anand

Actually, where did you hear about these 'doubts' about Ubuntu on 
servers? Though their initial focus was on the desktop, they've been 
putting out excellent server releases since 7.x. It seems Ubuntu has 
effortlessly inherited Debian's strength on the server space. It's 
almost always the default OS we put on our servers these days.
