Hi,
I came to know that, FOSS becomes mandatory in Anna University,
Coimbatore's
syllabus [1] .They call the subject as "Open Source" Time for some
appreciation from ILUGC? what about training the teachers of those
affiliated colleges? Can any one studying/working in Anna University
,Coimbatore affiliated colleges confirm this?
The course content looks REALLY interesting. But i feel that this is an
overkill. 2 reasons :
1. "For what the course has to offer", Fifth semester is too early. This
should be in the final year.
2. This course would fine tune a student's programming/exploratory skills,
which should be done after learning the rudiments of programming and the
associated theory.
Nevertheless, kudos!
