FSFTN as a community form, what did it achieve? i am curious to know.
Since 2014, FSFTN has started to use discourse as a platform to engage,
discuss and organize. You can find the public events and campaigns here
http://discuss.fsftn.org/category/public-events-campaigns
FSFTN is very actively engaged in building Free Software, Free Culture &
Free Infrastructure communities around TamilNadu and Pondicherry. FSFTN
organizes Summer Camp every year (Last month Summer Camp for 2015 was
organized at IIT Madras), it has also some College / regional level GLUG's
affiliated with it, it took the issue of violation of Net Neutrality
offline through public campaigns at Chennai and Puducherry, Documentary
Screening, organize workshops for general public like Cryptoparty,
Initiating community projects, etc.,
Few of which you can find below,

Google says fsftn.org - This site may be hacked. Timeline of events are
upto 2013 from the menu.
The site was compromised months back due to this vulnerability (
www.engadget.com/2015/05/07/wordpress-xss-bug/) in Wordpress. Thanks for
pointing out, the sites needs to be updated and activists at FSFTN have
already started to work on it.
