Can anyone please let me know where the *closed* freemedia form resides? A code dump will also do for me. But this is urgent and I need it desperately. Thanks. -- Regards, Susmit. ============================================= ssh 0x86DD170A http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/user:susmit =============================================

Virtualisation Workshop and Installfest completed successfully at Taqneeq`2008
by Debjit Saha 15 Dec '08

15 Dec '08

I (Debjit) and Aravind (Redhat) had been to the techfest of NMIMS engineering college here in Mumbai(India) on behalf of Fedora Project. We conducted two sessions there. On day one, Arvind demonstrated how easily virtualisation can be achieved on a Fedora Linux distro using the latest Fedora 10. The response from the students was overwhelming. On day two, I (debjit) conducted an installfest right on the campus. We distributed around 30 Fedora 10 Live CDs and 20 Fedora 10 DVDs and some Fedora Badges. The Installfest attracted many students and many laptops were Fedora 10 enabled after the completion of the installfest. I also demonstrated various features of Fedora 10 to the students there. Pictures of the event coming up soon. ty. cheers, Debjit

14 Dec '08

Hi guys!! Apologies for the delay. I have finally found a work around to access my hard drives which were long incarcerated in a dumb(down) PC. JIIT WAP Event: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraEvents/ReleaseParty/F10/Noida Reports are available here: http://prakhar.miniorb.in/blog/?p=23 I hope they give an insight into what happened during our workshop. Some more reports are in the progress and for that I have encouraged students to be volunteers. I will try to incorporate something from each one and prepare a final draft and post it on my blog mentioned above. Comments are welcome! Cheers! -- Prakhar Agarwal Linux User# 474643 http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Prakhar "Life is the greatest teacher"

I write to you on behalf of the OSScamp Pantnagar community, which is organising OSScamp Pantnagar February 2009 (Jan 31-Feb 1 2009) at the College of Technology, GB Pant University of Agriculture and Technology, Pantnagar, Uttarakhand. OSScamp is a series of community-driven unconferences with a specific aim to promote FOSS implementation and development in India. They are a premier FOSS event in India, drawing people from all wakes of technology, from all across the globe. The unconference is organised with the objectives of promoting indigenous FOSS development from India and is a very suitable paltform for the same considering the participants are from the developers/student/user domain. Join over 250 FOSS enthusiasts - geeks and geeks-to-be at OSScamp Pantnagar to discuss everything open source: the technology, the platforms, projects and development, or simply fuss the FOSS. Dont forget to bring along your project/demo; talk about it, scream about it, sing about it. Come to Pantnagar to celebrate technology and inhale nature.

[guidence needed] Fwd: Hello

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Akshay Jain <aj(a)akshayjain.org> Date: Thu, Dec 11, 2008 at 8:27 PM Subject: Hello To: susmit shannigrahi <thinklinux.ssh(a)gmail.com> Hi Susmit Thanks for the DVDs. I got both the DVDs. I was planning to conduct a seminar on Linux (Fedora) in my college. Unfortunately my college is more into arts and commerce. It is not a technical/engineering institute (The most of Delhi University is like this only :() . I myself am from Economics background. SO, I was wondering if you could probably guide me on how to go about it? Most of the people will probably not know what is linux in the first place and therefore, would be curious to find out more. Can you give me your opinion on this. Also, please let me know if I can be of any help in coordinating the activities in Delhi. Akshay -- Regards, Susmit. ============================================= ssh 0x86DD170A http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/user:susmit =============================================
