I agree here. A tamil subconference can talk about foss, can
contribute documentation and translation - but cannot contribute
code. And if our conference does not produce code, and coders, it
will be a failure.
Is the conference only going to be about how to code and develop foss
packages. Are we not going to target endusers also.
enduser of foss is not a passive monkey - he is an active participant
in the development of foss. If you had taken the trouble to read the
call for participation, you would have noticed that we *are*
targeting the endusers, with a view to bringing them to the next
level. And now someone is going ask - 'is the conference only going
to be about endusers? Are we not going to target the developers?'
