[Sorry for cross-posting, but thought it relevant to all campus FOSS
Communities]
Hi,

Write similar articles in your college magazines as well. BULL'Z EYE is
magazine in BMS College of Engineering Bangalore. BMS has a very active and
vibrant FOSS community and you can check out the cool things they have done
here http://fci.wikia.com/wiki/Bangalore/BMSCE

I also strongly recommend every student to join bmslug mailing list (
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/bmslug ) and get ideas to spread Free Software
in your own campus.

Also here is a list of active campus communities
http://fci.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Campus_Communities

If you have an active FOSS Community in your campus and it is not listed --
well you know what to do, its a wiki !

Regards
Praveen

Hi all,

This is the article I have written for Bull'z Eye. The relatively heavier
versions of free software have been neglected keeping in mind the variety of
the users. Changes or an altogether new article is welcome. Kindly reply.

                                          MAY THE SOURCE BE WITH YOU

   Does anyone know what runs GOOGLE!!! Does anyone know which is the best
browser in the world and product of the year 2006 (Firefox - Open Source)?
Has anyone tried Amarok (GNU/Linux Audio Player)? Did you know that VLC
Media Player is open Source? Did you know that there exists a 3D Desktop way
cooler than Vista which runs on 256MB RAM and came out over a year ago
(Beryl/KDE Project) and that a study concluded that machines on GNU/Linux
last twice longer, take up lesser system resources and have graphics so
astounding that you'll be gaping at it flabbergasted by the unnerving
appeal?
   The answer to all these, my friends is GNU/Linux and free software and
if you haven't found that out yet it's high time you joined BMSLUG (BMS
Linux User's Group). A  group for those who understand and are looking
forward to understand the brilliance of Free Software which is not just free
from the bondages of censorship but also way superior to proprietary
software. Thus a group for those who truly love coding and thus choose
GNU/Linux with the most advanced development tools, modern and efficient
compilers. Software that is free in the true sense and not just free but
hip.
   Now enough introduction. Stop thinking and now THINK! Try going to any
IT related site, any site that has to do with sotwares and computing. Try
going to buy any magazines which are related to computing. Try realizing the
fact that Govt. of Tamil Nadu and American Defense have moved to GNU/Linux.
Try looking around more carefully than you generally did. A wave of liberty
is spreading and people have stopped taking things for granted. Look at the
IT industry once more and you'll know that Dell is coming up with GNU/Linux
pre-installed on their desktop's, and HP and IBM donating terabytes of RAM
to GNU/Linux and undergoing mega deals for GNU/Linux desktops and laptops.
Like an ocean beating the embarkment over, the wave of free software is at
the helm of "breaking the wall" and if you're not with it, you're not in it.

To find more goto www.google.com/linux or simply come to us, the tuxified.

Pulkit
