After meeting people in SFD 2011 - at IIT Powai, Also, since now many students are going to get 'Laptops' from TN govt, a new audience (if we can call them) may be enticed to see (and get benefitted) a series of FOSS related things in TVs. Though this may take a lot of time to even start (finding 'slots' with TV, finding 'sponsors', finding 'topics', getting approved, finding 'Hosts', etc), my only question is 'WILL IT WORK (not only commercially but also 'in the best interest of all'). If he goes ahead - he will be in touch with most of you (who are in chennai), to make this into a shape. - need your unreserved remarks - without any bias. If this is not even treated as a 'topic', I will not take this personally. thanks (and sorry if I had wasted your time) Yes, It will work !! Provided you do not confuse audience with FOSS and Other Tech Terminology.

Shrinivasan asked me to conduct this session. This program only for Kids. So I called Mr. Selvamani to accompany with me. I went there early morning 9 am. The session was started at exactly 10am. At beginning what I thought is All kids are looking small, so they does not know anything about Operating system. So It will take so hard to make them clear understand about Linux. But after started to take session I felt that my thought is wrong. Everyone of there had experience with Windows. Me and Selvamani started to talk with student with the as usual story of Ritchard M Stalman and Linus Torvalt. Everyone impressed with Linux. I showed Ubuntu and its compiz features. Then we played BigBugBunny animation clip. All kids enjoyed this. Ubuntu is Good but when you give to newbies, he may face problems, List is very long. What is why we tried to create SchoolOS which contains everything which child need with good configuration. I suggest you for having a try on SchoolOS. Also, Please send me your postal address so that I can send you its DVD. Here is a huge information we have put on our wiki http://wiki.schoolos.org, you can also add your experience there too. Most important, you need to install GNU/Linux and observer their problems. Like newbies do not get any clue how to configure IP address even though it is very easy. Same with Hindi typing etc. It looks a blackbox to child if nobody is there to teach them. That why newer version include helpful pdf files on right on desktop so that student can directly get those help. Next question session. Followings are some question, which I never expected from them 1. At the session I explained about kernal orally. A 8th standard student asked me that How can I see the source code of kernal?. I do not find any point in teaching kernel OR other concept to child. ICT is meant for help in education and not for making computer engineers. Thats it, a few second I was kept silent. 2. How can I install linux in my system? Great !! A detailed tutorial is there in SchoolOS which he/she can follow to install. This is how we can make permanent answer to these questions. 3. Where can I get help regarding linux? How about Short cut on Desktop on clicking , it will open ##linux-India IRC. ? any other suggestion ? 4. Some kids said, can you give your mobile number? I will call you with my dad, and elder brother and exp 5. How to play games? OpenAreana, SuperTux, TuxMath, Tuxkart (i forget exact name) - See here - http://schoolos.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/Ubuntu/Add_Remove_Packages.sh 6. One student asked me a critical question that is Linux is a free OS and have all kinds of softwares, then Why it is not famous. I mean why we dont know about linux? Because Linux/FOSS/GNU is made by all of us and we do it for non-profit. Company system do not find much benefit out of this in promoting. Same with Govt at some places. GNU/Linux depends on us and we need to spread it. Somebody told about Linux to me and I used it. I am not a fan of it, you use it, And tell your friends about it. 7. Will Linux affect by virus? Virus comes when there is close source. FOSS/OpenSource has lots of developer who keep solving bugs. This sentence is 87.234 % Correct and can be used for satisfying their curiosity. Really amazing. right? At the end of the session we met another unexpected incident that is Some kids came forward to asked us Autograph. What to say? That was my memorable day Great !! We have produced 2 videos - http://tinyvid.tv/show/1v367m8wp430a http://tinyvid.tv/show/1a1b2tc549d8v Try Creating such videos,, these videos will inspire other kids to use GNU/Linux. ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

On Mon, Dec 27, 2010 at 11:56 AM, Arulalan T arulal...@gmail.com wrote: Dear All, 2010/12/17 Shrinivasan T tshriniva...@gmail.com Friends, Is it possible for us to create a FOSS alternate for Teamviewer? Shall we start working on this? Yesterday I have attended the FOSS meetup in Delhi. In that many people presented/discussed about some good things. One student (Anuvrat - cced in this thread) presented his college 3rd year project and demonstrated. The project is Desktop sharing to remote machine(s) over the LAN/WAN . He almost completed that project by using g++ , Qt and some more stuff. He hosted his code and documents here https://github.com/bhanuvrat I think, he has finished the ground work for creating alternate of TeamViewer. If we people guiding him and working together means, surely we can achieve our goal soon. I told him about ilugc mailing list and discussion over the alternate for teamviewer. He is willing to do this project. Quote : Once we started to think to do something, that something has already started by someone in some where. -- said by T.Shrinivasan But you need to look and work on existing protocols like VNC RDP etc.. this software is good for learning or foundation something but it is far far and very far from normal setup which we can do using exiting tool. For example, sending desktop video to icecast server using normal existing tool gave me 7 second delay in whole operation that too i am using 100x100 resolution. Video transmission is much more efficient then frame by frame transmission what exactly he is doing. If you want to make something better or similar to teamviewer then look if they have made any open protocols or what is the work done which is better or something very innovative like sending instructional drawing like SVG rather then depending on pixel... SVG is a good role and scope in this.. One last point, I am not dictating that what you discuss on mailing list and what not, but it will be great if you guys can carry all the contribution+development type of discussion on http://groups.google.com/group/oscontrib mailing list or else we can device a better way or platform where we can discuss this expect.

Please join Indian Debian mailing list - http://lists.debian.org/debian-dug-in/ I am now migrating from Ubuntu to Debian because Debian give all things which ubuntu provide in a stable form. Debian has three branch 1) Stable 2) Testing 3) Unstable.. Ubuntu and other product are derived from Unstable branch and meant for mass testing, Ubuntu never cared about bug and stick to time table, the famous 10/10/10 release were having bugs and they released because they wanted to release it on time. Above all, I do not to live with a OS which is controlled by a company who is targeting on MacOS. Look and feel and behavior of ubuntu is going towards mac os.

[Ilugc] Why local user group, its time for GCI (Group for common Interest) too
In India, we have LUG for many place/institutes. culture is almost same. One thing I am not happy is we all repeat same thing again and again. For example If somebody is facing a problem in Ubuntu and he ask in his local user group and try to solve the problem. Or If there is a some generic purpose email then we try to forward in every daam possible mailing lists. If their is a generic email then post on FOSSCOMM mailing listhttp://lists.fosscom.in/listinfo.cgi/network-fosscom.inor if there is a discussion for meeting/workshop then post on local user group. Also, why post job email to every daam possible mailing list where fossjobs.in is or fossyellopages (by LFY) is doing good job. We must setup interest based learning group. for example , a Indian HTML5 user grouhttp://mail.openwebindia.org/mailman/listinfo/openwebindia_openwebindia.orgp , Ubuntu India or Fedora India.. We must setup Interest based mailing list like Drupal User group, Arduino user group india, PhpLovergroup India, So that we can see focused and common interest based people thus meetups and thus workshop/seminar like Delhi Drupal meetup 1,2,... etc. You can start creating Interest based groups on facebook like PHP Programmer group on facebookhttp://www.facebook.com/home.php?sk=group_153904971318569ap=1, or just Programmers http://www.facebook.com/home.php?sk=group_155844017784862ap=1etc... Select whatever medium you want like twitter or orkut or mailing list.. mailing list might be heavy for this purpose.. I am talking about small but dedicated teams... If team is big like Drupal user group then mailing is Ok. The purpose of GCI (Group for common Interest) is to create a small platform - says 3-4 but dedicated people who are want to learn or want expertness in a given area and actively participate.

[Ilugc] FOSS in Indian Schools - A Serious Concern a Request to Unite.
Dear FOSS Enthusiasts and Activists. I am writing this letter to all for a request to create a task force to advocate FOSS in schools. If we fail to advocate Linux in schools then we will be failed everywhere. Most of the computer users like me are using computer from Last 5-6 year or less. They learned everything in college only. Also at our time computer was a costly device. We have not faced much difficult in migrating from Windows to Linux. Now we love Linux based distro and advocate for open curriculum, content , no-patents, no-DRM etc. But today scenario has changed. Computer are available in every * Mohalla* and Village. many of them are not having Internet connectivity. they are just using some pirated software. This is not a small population. This is a very huge population. This huge population of school students is also including student who do not have money to buy computer but they are learning using cybercafe and coaching classes. If you do not tell them to use FOSS and Linux based Distro, they will continue using pirated window software for next 10-15 year of their life until they got lucky to enter into a college where Local LUG is active and he got change to explore GSoC and other activities OR course curriculum include FOSS. *After 7 year, if you wish to give a lecture for advocating FOSS/Linux in a college then Do you think you can convince them to use FOSS/Linux and stop using the proprietary products which he is using from last 10 years? * During a workshop of Kids at NCERT, a 5th class kids refused to work on Kturtle because he was using LOGO software from last 1 year. Those who do not know LOGO created very beautiful diagrams with Kturtle. You can only reach engineering students at College level Linux/FOSS promotion and activities. But these student who are going to use proprietary product for they whole school life will go in various domain like art, music, law etc. you can never convince them after their mind-wash. I learned to do advocacy from two side attack. System is like pyramid. Bottom side contains huge student. and tip is controlled by those who run Education system. at top level we need to look for syllabus change and other activities. At bottom side we need to advocate FOSS and Linux principle in schools. Imagine the power of community and collaboration value inside this huge community. This student community need out love, care and guidance. We can together create a task force and think for various strategies to introduce FOSS in schools. If you empower this student community then they can crate whole curriculum and e-learning videos of their syllabus by themselves. == Duty of Task Force == * Creating mailing list or all FOSS + Edu persons * Bring all FOSS+Edu on mailing list Or paper newsletter * Creating Workshop for discussion. * supporting the development of SchoolOS * empower technical level of student and teacher * Creating article for FOSS advocacy * Creating template letters for creating workshop in schools * getting help from NCERT and other institutes. * Creating booklets/Books - Classwise * Creating Portals for students and teacher * Creating teacher and student community Please Join - SchoolOS mailing list - http://groups.google.com/group/schoolos and wiki.schoolos.org -- ┌─┐ │Narendra Sisodiya │http://narendrasisodiya.com └─┘ ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
