Dear Member, Greetings ! We would like to thank for the continuous support offered by you in promoting Free / Open Source Software (FOSS) in colleges. This year we have planned to conduct a series of Technical Workshop on "How Colleges can successfully Migrate to Linux and Open Source Software" using recent releases of Fedora-18 Linux and Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Long Term Support) Linux having more than 45,000+ applications for academic and research purposes. We have planned to conduct this workshop during the month of May / June 2013. If any college is interested in organizing this workshop, they can write to baskar @ linuxpert.in. This workshop will be for two days with completely hands-on, exclusively for IT Managers, System Administrators and Technical Assistants working in Universities and Engineering Colleges. Faculty members handling the subject **Open Source Lab (AU Subject Code: CS-2406 / CS-77)** can also attend this workshop. With warm regards, S.
