Workshop about Linux in Dharan, Nepal -- Help! wanted

[Tushar Neupaney]

Dear ambassadors,

I am conducting a three day workshop in BPKIHS, Dharan, this is a medical
university and I hope that at least a 1000 people will attend.

To make this opportunity an event of a lifetime and utilize it to motive
many to use Linux is my prime goal.

Can anyone contribute to the materials that are needed to be discussed in
the workshop.
The things that should not be missed and anything special that can be done
economically and easily to motive people.

The tentative date of starting is August 20. (Date still flexible)

We can support:
1. Hall for workshop.
2. Some computers (Not all can get one! limitation due to the crowd)
3. We also have a small set of volunteers (Count: 30)
4. Other supports are still to come....

Hoping to get some support,

Best Regards,

Tushar.

Ya,

We will also have something for that.
Basically we will conduct an "Only For Advanced User" day program at the end
of the workshop.

This day we will have less crowd and more dedicated Linux users.

Dear Ahsan,

If possible I would like to develop a common ground for SAARC Linux Geeks.
Your suggestions are extremely valuable for that. I mean you can be 
clear what you would like in the workshop.

Our proposed plan includes the following (But it is still under massive 
development):

1. Video Shows (Documentary Movies, Shows)

2. Presentations (Slides/Lectures) - By special delegates

3. Training about tuXlab, Linux Console Commands and Simple Networking

4. Using Linux Applications like R-Gui, Gnu Plot, Open Office, Firefox, 
F-Spot, VLC, Installing through Wine, Amarok, IRC, Desktop Effects, 
Translating Linux applications (This will basically for Beginners and 
Medical Professionals)

5. Advanced Users Only program (This is due to high demands of Advanced 
Users)

6. Initialization for establishment of Linux Developer Circle (A Circle 
exists in pieces here, What should be done is yet to be decided)

Your Suggestions needed!
