[lugm.org] Presentation // JCI meeting

[Loganaden Velvindron]

I remember all of the nice promises made by some govt body that I won't name. They made it sound like we could count on them for any initiative.

Can you please tell me why I pay taxes again :p ?

Hello Avinash,

The presentation went fine. They were around 10 members & were quite intrigued by "Linux", wanted to know more. So, I did the usual Linux & FOSS awareness, described our activities & what user groups do in general. They are interested to collaborate with us in future IT related activities.

For now they received a donation of 30 Raspberry Pis & a couple of us are helping them load Raspbian on those & a few from MSCC are helping to build up some educational material (in the local context). The Pis are destined for a ZEP School as I told you guys in earlier meetups.

Maybe this Saturday a visit can be arranged to see the location, network needs etc. Will keep you guys posted & anybody who wishes to participate just pop in ( :

What LUGM could benefit from this? Well, I guess we need activities to showcase. This will be one among the many.

Cheers!
