FOSS intro at Shasun College..

Bharathi and myself organized this morning, a FOSS introduction session for the students of Shasun College, T Nagar , Chennai.

The interactive session started at 10.30 AM. Software freedom, gnu and all other advocacy stuffs were discussed…

Around 200 students of the college and the lecturers participated. The pre-event-awareness about FOSS was relatively little.. thanks to the pro-m$ based curriculum framed by the relevant university..

Then it was time to introduce Ubuntu to them and an overall overview of applications that comes packed with it was also shared.

And at the end, we felt that the migration (of mindset) had just begun ;-)

    IMO, there will be some concrete measure of success if the speakers can caliberate the audiences on the subject of talk one time before the talk and one time after the talk.

    I haven’t dont any such talks though..
