[glug-t] Re: Hacker Crackdown

Hey guys,

The idea seems to be astounding. All the best.

I know that you guys are already involved in lot of activities ,but i 
would suggest you also  be involved in, something that would give industry 
exposure to GLUG.
couple of things that i would like to do if i were in the college.

- update the glug-t site more frequently ;-) ( it  helps me pass time when 
i get bored down here...)
- organize a small group of hackers who can contribute something to real 
time OSS projects ( something from sourceforge or i would suggest 
forge.novell.com)
- set up a newsgroup or a froum kinda stuff where people can get their 
UNIX/LINUX.... issues resolved or better if we could answer queries @ 
comp.unix, comp.os.linux.*)
- lot more companies today contribute to OSS and require students who can 
do something as part of their college projects. (MCA, BE vacation 
projects....).


Regards,
Vikram

[glug-t] Hacker Crackdown






Hi folks! 
At GLUG-T we are planning a 'Hacker Crackdown' spanning around 5-7 days 
with lecture sessions for 2-21/2 hours per day. 
 
The aim of this course is to raise the level of developer skills, 
and enhance it to enable contribution to free software projects 
easier. 
 
At a informal discussion with Ramasamy  we hit upon a few interesting 
and necessary topics which will be included for the course. 
 
1 Linux Kernel Device Drivers, 
2 MONO, the free .NET framework 
3 Bonobo,and the GNOME component model. 
4 KParts, DCOP, and the KDE component model. 
5 GUI Hacking with GTK. 
6 GUI Hacking with Qt. 
7 Embedding Guile into applications, for adding scriptability. 
  A case study of GIMP/Scheme. 
8 i18n, l10n, GNU Gettext: HowTo. 
9 Writing Plugins for real world applications. eg: XMMS plugin 
A CVS, GNU Autotools, writing RPM Specs. 
 
Enrollment will be open to all, and might involve a minimal fee, to 
set right GLUG-T defecits and what it owes to one person. 
 
You will be informed about the commencement of enrollment, and 
fee details at the earliest. Please keep listening to this line [mailing 
list]. 
 
Also suggestions are welcome to improve content. 
Mr Bharathee, Vijay, Ramakrishnan I hope you are listening. 
 
Please post your views 
 
 
Yours Truly, 
Muthu. 
 
Life is beautiful.
