My sincere apologies for posting the FDP/Workshop Event Report mails in
ILUG-C in the recent times.
Do not understand the apology why ?
I agree. No need for apology. Posting such events will
a) coax more members -- especially new entrants to join you or spread the
news about possibility of such events
b) mentioning the name of the college and the concerned staff make them
happy, and more so, induces other colleges to look for such events
c) show cases the group activities
As I came to know through Mr.Shrinivasan, the members of the ILUG-C
community were against the term 'on behalf of ILUG-C' used in my posts.
Possibly you or for that matter any "institution/company" could avoid
using the term "on behalf of ILUG-C".
Technically, we are all encourage to evangelize/train, but not 'mandated'.
The events are not discussed in the list and "decided upon".
Though I used to mention about ILUGC and mention the nearby FOSS groups in
my talks, it was "on behalf of NRCFOSS / AU-KBC/CDAC", as the case may be.
Now that I am not officially engaged -- but still associated in their FOSS
activities -- I have to be cautious while using the term.
Personally speaking, I would like to see "on behalf of ILUG-C" -- may be,
like FOSS development communities, we can have a core group -- members
"accepted" on the basis of meritocracy & contribution. Should definitely
include the Coordinator (T. Shrinivasan, at present) and a few others.
Kenneth would have teased me that Raman and Bharathi would have been my
choices, and he would have been right.
Continue your efforts and all the best.
