[Ilugc] Reg FREE SOFTWARE DEMOS in Carte Blanche'12 at MIT, Anna University
Hi, * * Computer Society is a student association of the *Madras Institute of Technology* which was established in the year 1983. Initially it was set up to promote computer knowledge among students from various branches of engineering but it later became an active participant in the FOSS movement. * Carte Blanche http://www.cb.csmit.org/* is one such annual fest conducted in our college in celebration of Free and Open Source Software. Its one of the biggest Free software Fest. It aims at creating awareness among young minds about the power of FOSS and also is a platform for FOSS enthusiasts to share, discuss and discover new horizons. We are palnning to host it on *24th and 25th of March 2012.* Each year, FOSS demo stalls are set up enthusiastically by students and FOSS advocators alike. These demonstrations on the features of free software have been an effective way of bringing about the much needed recognition and appreciation for the FOSS community. Apart from these demos we also organize special events such as lectures from experts, GNU/Linux quizzes, and other competitions on Web designing, hacking, networking etc. In the prvious years we had audio conference with *Richard Stallman, Father of Free Software.* This year too, the Carte Blanche’12 is being organized with the undaunted spirit and enthusiasm. We hope to further our reach and help spread the wisdom of Free and Open Source Software. In this respect, we would be deeply gratified if your renowned organization could be a part of our endeavor. We have*15+ events* in this time and have already confirmed workshops on *Add on Development by Mozilla, Exploring Wikipedia by Wikipedia and Open Hardware - Arduino.* *Volunteers who are interested to put Demos on various Free Software can mail t...@csmit.org* For further details visit the Fest Website: *http://www.cb.csmit.org* -- Regards... V!M@LESI-I Give your BEST through ACTION. ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

Note that this hackathon is *not* a purely MediaWiki hackathon, and the aim is to build hacks/tools/gadgets around the API/Content than mediawiki extensions itself (Extensions/Patches to MW are welcome too, but not the goal). So tools that make your life as an editor easier, tools that make content discovery in multiple languages easier, tools that help Wiki* spread, anything at all your mind can think of - please post on the Ideas page.

Good network security implementation should work regardless of the desktop/browser settings. If you configure your firewall to accept outgoing web traffic only from your proxy server IP, then even if users change the browser proxy configuration they cannot cannot bypass your proxy and gain web access.
