First of all, i welcome this initiative of setting up exclusive foss lab.
Thanks.
I
have few thoughts to share here..
- Setting up a foss lab should NOT be an end in itself.
Our initiative of setting up FOSS lab is just a begining, and also to mark
an end for the proprietary software in technical/engineering education.
Is there any
result oriented projects planned?
could you explain, what you mean result oriented projects?
- FOSS should NOT be confined within a lab. Rather, we should explore
how we can use foss applications for day to day use of the college life.
eg: intranet mail servers, intranet wiki, intranet forums, intranet
blogs,
a knowledge repository,, Please excuse me, if these are already done in
your college. (In my observation most colleges dont even have an
intranet
mail server).
Few engg. colleges/universities have already got and other colleges to
follow soon. (Most of the engg. colleges will have the above setup very
soon).
- There should institutional mechanism, where the department consistently
works on a FOSS project, irrespective of students studying. ie, students
should learn and contribute for the project, and when before he gets
passed
out, he has to train the incoming students.. by this way, we can
generate
continous pool of resources to work on any FOSS related projects.
- There are many issues where Linux based machines could not be
integrated to a windows network. (this is one of the reason why windows
servers are preferred over linux).. Colleges can work on these issues
with
colloboration from corporates.
why corporates, can't a Small / Medium Business do that?
