#linux-india
Of late i have been hanging around at #linux-india. Its a very vocal group of people there. Lively discussions, and a lot of light hearted leg pulling goes on. Here are a few points jotted down in random:
- maryN works for Yahoo, and he/she has signed a contract which forbids him/her from writing public code, and hence he/she cant contribute!
- I suggested that all linux distros should have a common package manager and should follow FHS strictly. I met with some opposition and a lot of philosophy.
- Once upon a time, a father sent his 4 sons to 4 different corners of the earth (someone asked me “4 corners of the earth, what are they”
). They learned different things. Then they met after 10 years and shared their knowledge and grew. I felt the different linux distros should serve the same purpose. Some one said “the prodigal son came back with virus infested windows !” - I said i want to be there at foss.in 2008, and I was given this link . Was pretty harsh i thought.
- Mr. Gora Mohanty and I had a chat on the possibility of organising a workshop with IndLinux at NIT Durgapur.
- Mr. Gora Mohanty said “Yes, Indic OCR could be a part of project day at foss.in “.
- Hobbes said “Whats with the Mr. XYZ thing” after i said Mr. Sankarshan
