Hi friends,
Many of you must have heard about the recent raids by software firms on
photography studios in Mandya and Mysore districts. Here is a news article
on the same,
http://www.deccanherald.com/content/190270/beware-using-softwares-licence.html.
FSMK, Free Software Movement Karnataka has recently released a press note
appealing to small scale vendors to try out FOSS alternatives,
http://www.fsmk.org/node/86
Photography studios associations have contacted us and requested us to train
them on FOSS alternatives. Hence we are looking for GIMP experts who have
worked extensively on photo editing to talk to few representatives of these
associations and understand their requirements. If their requirements are
fulfilled by GIMP, then we can plan for a large scale workshop and help them
migrate.
So please contact us if you can help us in understanding their requirements
and migrating them.
If this is not done immediately, then they will be forced to come to some
agreement with software firms and have to shell out chunk of their profit to
pay for the license fees.
