Dear Ahsan,<br>
<br>
If possible I would like to develop a common ground for SAARC Linux
Geeks.<br>
Your suggestions are extremely valuable for that. I mean you can be
clear what you would like in the workshop.<br>
<br>
Our proposed plan includes the following (But it is still under massive
development):<br>
<br>
<p>1. Video Shows (Documentary Movies, Shows)</p>
<p>2. Presentations (Slides/Lectures) - By special delegates<br>
</p>
<p>3. Training about tuXlab, Linux Console Commands and Simple
Networking<br>
</p>
<p>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)<br>
</p>
<p>5. Advanced Users Only program (This is due to high demands of
Advanced Users)</p>
<p>6. Initialization for establishment of Linux Developer Circle (A
Circle exists in pieces here, What should be done is yet to be decided)</p>
Your Suggestions needed!<br>
<br>

<br>
We will also have something for that.<br>
Basically we will conduct an "Only For Advanced User" day program at
the end of the workshop.<br>
<br>
This day we will have less crowd and more dedicated Linux users.<br>

So as I guess, you are organising an orientation programme cum
workshop that will make the target audience aware of GNU/Linux and
FOSS, and provide them a brief insight of how to use them, isn't it?<br>
Can you send a brief detail of how are you structuring the
programme? Meanwhile the target of 1000 audience doesn't seem feasible;
how can you manage them with just 30 volunteers. You need to prepare a
lot.<br>
Well, regarding the contents, you can use some of the marketing
slides of Fedora which you can find at .... I'll also suggest you to
use some of the RedHat Videos like "<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://truthhappens.redhatmagazine.com/" target="_blank">Truth
Happens</a>", "<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.redhat.com/v/ogg/WeAreHere.ogg" target="_blank">We
are here</a>" etc. You can include some materials like "FOSS for
Education" (refer to <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.iosn.net/search?SearchableText=FOSS+Primer"
target="_blank">IOSN FOSS Primer</a> for more such materials), "How
can FOSS help to create secure and low cost ICT infrastructures?"
(refer to the RedHat's <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.redhat.com/promo/streamline/overview/?intcmp=70160000000HURA"
target="_blank">Cost Cutter Video</a> for reference). You can also
include a Install Fest, which will enable your target audience to get
Linux (preferably Fedora) installed on their PC/Laptop. Moreover,
providing Live CDs would have been a good option, but the number of
audience is a great barrier here.<br>
<br>
Well after 27th July, I'll be free and would be able to help you more.
Keep in touch.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Abhishek Singh<br>

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.<br>
<br>
To make this opportunity an event of a lifetime and utilize it to
motive many to use Linux is my prime goal.<br>
<br>
Can anyone contribute to the materials that are needed to be discussed
in the workshop.<br>
The things that should not be missed and anything special that can be
done economically and easily to motive people.<br>
<br>
The tentative date of starting is August 20. (Date still flexible)<br>
<br>
We can support:<br>
1. Hall for workshop.<br>
2. Some computers (Not all can get one! limitation due to the crowd)<br>
3. We also have a small set of volunteers (Count: 30)<br>
4. Other supports are still to come....<br>
<br>
Hoping to get some support,<br>
<br>
Best Regards,<br>
<br>
