We have planned and conducted events in the past and are planning a few events for this month also. We would highly appreciate, if you could come here for some talk or something. Though the things are not finalised, some planning is left. I will tell you as soon as a draft is prepared. In fact everyone who is interested in coming to Solan (H.P.), in this beautiful weather is invited. ;) -- Regards Chirag Anand 4th Year, B.Tech Computer Science Department, JUIT Solan Blog :http://techfreaks4u.com/blog Linux User: 476783 anything weird is worth a try... ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
