[Urgent] Cultural Freedom Day Request
by A. Mani
The Indian team for cultural freedom day is planning an online event
on 20th May. Primarily it includes Women in Free s/w and Culture
(wfs-india.dreamwidth.org), Kolkata GLUG, Mozilla, Gnome and I want
to include Fedora as well.
So far we 3 free s/w related event proposals and 1 culture-free s/w
related proposal. More of the latter type will be able to help us
extend the free s/w network instead of strengthening existing ones.
We want
1. more event proposals
2. Fedora T-shirts etc to be given as prizes for certain events.
Who can supply these?
3. I am not sure about what Mozilla can offer
(I know since we have little time what else can be done ... esp about funds )
Essential points of the irc meeting will be out soon.
Please reply soon.
Best
A. Mani

[Event Report] Introduction to Fedora, Tech Shiksha Institute, 5 May 2013
by Navneet Singh
Hi,
An event named "Geek" was organized by "Tech Shiksha Institute" on Sunday,
5 May 2013, in Seminar Hall of Hotel Chandra Inn, Jodhpur, Rajashtan.
Mr. Aaditya Maheshwari [1], was the chief guest of the day. The day started
with "Introduction to F/OSS" by Mr. Aaditya Maheshwari in which more light
was thrown on the difference between Free Software and Open Source
Software. He also told the audience about FSF Foundation [2] and GNU/Linux
[3], which was followed by "Why Open Source is necessary ? " for
development.
After a short break, I started with "Introduction to Fedora" in which I
told them about the Fedora OS and Fedora Project. Then, I told the audience
about the communication guidelines which is required in "Free Software
Communication" with the help of
"i-want-2-do-project-tell-me-what-2-do-fedora" [4]. I also told them about
the different "Fedora Sub-Projects" [5] in which they can contribute. We
had a Q/A session in the end where various queries of the the attendees
were answered. The photos taken during the event are available on my blog
[6].
Thanks,
Navneet Singh
