SUB: Proposal for Project day on behalf of the Fedora Project.
Dear Sir,
Firstly, on behalf of the Fedora Project, congratulations to team foss.in for their continuous pursuit for organising a great event. At fedora, we were already planning sessions and meet-ups around foss.in and now that the CfP is out, it is time for us to be working. :)
As you may be well aware, Fedora India is constantly working with various engineering colleges across India in form of workshops, tutorials, events to bring new faces to Fedora and FOSS for last couple of years. It is for this effort that we now have a number of students, mostly from various engineering colleges across India, contributing to different sub-projects of Fedora.
This year, we have plans for a few quality talks and workouts, but more importantly, we are planning to provide these new faces an opportunity to meet and work together with peers and experts so that they can take their participation to the next level and also guide their peers/juniors into FOSS arena.
With this in mind, we would like to propose ourselves as a participant in "Projects of the Day" at foss.in. The initial plans, which are somewhat primitive at this point but would have a number of proposals over next few days, can be found here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Foss_in_2009 .
Please let us know if more details are needed. Also please let us know if anything else is needed to be done in this regard.
We are awaiting for positive responses from your part.
Thanking you,
With my best regards,
Susmit Shannigrahi.
