I'm an IT professional/FOSS Geek living and working in New Delhi, India. Currently for the most part I work as a Technical Consultant developing Open Source ICT solutions for social and societal inclusion. I am a a FOSS enthusiast, I want to create an awareness about FOSS through the work I do. Below are the latest updates from a some social networks I subscribe to.
Kerala Government initiative….
Kerala has taken an initiative towards FOSS which has being in the news for a long time now. But the interesting thing is that there site is not like a typical government entities website which are a simple HTML page and in which half of the links don’t ever work(example ICAR). But the kerala gov FOSS initiative site is totally made by a free and open source CMS called Joomla which is nice to hear.
One of the most interesting part is the apply online tab where you can apply for a crash course in FOSS Technologies & Soft Skills. Its a 6 months crash course with admission fee of Rs. 50,000. But its held in kerala which is the only bad news for people from other parts in india.
