Well, since we are college students, i don't think we can chip-in for the prizes. Buying CDs and burning them isnt really an option. Plus we need something more 'attractive' too.. I'm sure ubuntu t-shirts etc would be a huge hit. I'll talk to the organizers about 'funding'.. in any case, whom should i contact at canonical?? I personally think that this fest is a great opportunity to showcase linux to engineering students, who sadly dont know much about it. With enough effort and luck, we might get almost the whole college to use linux, which i think will be great. Also btw, we were thinking of keeping a guest lecture..anyone related to linux/Free software. Any ideas? Anyone of you interested? It'd be great if some developer can enlighten us.. Thanks for all the responses. -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
