Nice to know that NRCFOSS is building the college community in Karnataka.
What would be really good is if NRCFOSS can share some advance info with the
FOSS community in Karnataka regarding the where and the when.

prefer to work with lugs.

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.

Srinivasan.

I am visiting KLES's College of Engg., & Technology, Belgaum next week to
give a talk on FOSS and discuss about their FOSS activities. They are keen
on FOSS training workshops (for students and staff), projects, etc.

Would like to put them in touch with LUG / FOSS community members who could
help them. Bangalore LUG group might be ideal. Cotacts from others are also
welcome
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.

If possible, would suggest to get rid of this google trap at the
outset. A mailman under some domain would be great.. Most features of
a google group is made avilable only for those with google account...

I am visiting KLES's College of Engg., & Technology, Belgaum next week to
give a talk on FOSS and discuss about their FOSS activities. They are keen
on FOSS training workshops (for students and staff), projects, etc.

Would like to put them in touch with LUG / FOSS community members who could
help them. Bangalore LUG group might be ideal. Cotacts from others are also
welcome.

[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
Srinivasan, NRCFOSS.
