*Discussion*:

I started to deliver my ideas and concepts regarding OpenStreetMap. In what
status Open Street Map is now, What to do with open street map, What are the
things we can do with OSM? Like these questions i gave my thoughts to
fulfill the gaps obtained between the OSM and users. Also I told them how
easy it is to contribute for OSM, due to missing of some sample files i was
not able to give live demo of editing the map at offline. But i make sure of
covering that concept in upcoming meetups, instead of that i narrated the
steps involved for editing the map at both offline and online with the help
Java-OSM

After then Mr. Vijay Ganapathy tells about the concept of PXE-boot, also he
gave example in real time like installing OS for Colleges. For these kind of
process PXE-boot is useful. Like some other concepts of real time workings
he shared his experience.

Finally he gave some ideas to implement the FOSS lab in Kanchipuram
colleges. So that many people will get awareness of FOSS. We windup the
session around 5.30 p.m.

Thank You.
