Hi harmeet, This is pavan. I am a proud member of BITLug :)=20 and currently working at HP. The plan is to give a series of talks each one featuring a main programming concept - mem mgmt, processes, file handling, and the sorts. In the course of these talks, there will be a lot of info on programming tools in linux, good programming practices, quirks and tips and a lot of fun :). From the topics, you can see that it is a talk not only on programming, but a lot of OS concepts. There is no bound on a programming language, as such. A prior exposure to C will be helpful, though not necessary. all this aside, it'll be nice if you can let us know about yourself, since you are new to the list. bye TC
