What is the authentication system used?  Is it local user authentication, or
any type of network authentication enabled in such FOSS labs..

One more point..  this ILUGC has so many industry professionals..  is there
any survey on how many of them work on open source projects, or how many
started an open source project?  The reason i am asking is that when we
ourselves could not leap to the next level, how can we blame the students
and staffs?

Hi,

I've read a lot of mails about the labs being set up at various
> colleges and, I've wanted to know about what happens next ?


The engg. colleges in the coimbatore and surrounding regions (Erode, Salem,
Namakkal, Karur, Dharmapuri, Krishnagiri districts) have started using open
source software in most of the computer labs for doing their practicals and
also decided to teach linux/foss from the first year onwards. (a engg.
college has requested to setup a lab with Linux/QCAD for mechanical engg.
dept.)

As the engg. colleges have the subject 'open source software' in the sixth
semester (
http://www.annauniv.ac.in/syllab_curriculam_pdf/2008/cse_5_8sem.pdf) which
covers LAMPPP, they are in need of foss labs and we have setup the lab with
every proprietary equivalent foss tools and the colleges are experimenting
with all the tools and also have decided to use foss tools in other labs
also.

We have got excellent feedback from almost all the engg. colleges, where we
have setup foss labs and also we all can ensure that, in the coming years
GNU/Linux will be the primary operating system of choice in engg. colleges
here.

We had detailed discussions with many of the engg. college management
authorities, and they have decided to use foss to make better use of IT
infrastructure wherever possible/applicable.

I've read a lot of mails about the labs being set up at various
colleges and, I've wanted to know about what happens next ? Does there
exist a system by which the colleges keep track of how the labs are
being used or, report issues with the setup ?
