GNUnify 2005'

Finally I made it to GNUnify! My scheduled talks are on "Getting involved in the FLOSS Movement". I really hope it goes good since I did not have the time to make a presentation or even come up with the points to speak about. But I did manage to scribble down something on my way over here.

Hoping to give a join talk on "Ruby":http://www.ruby-lang.org with "Premshree":http://www.livejournal.com/~premshree/ may be if i get some time even talk about "Ruby On Rails":http://www.rubyonrails.org.

*Update*
Oh the talks were tooo awesome. It started off a bit slow with only 10 people attending the "Ruby":http://www.ruby-lang.org talk but later for the "Getting involved in the FLOSS Movement" we had nearly 60-70 people.

I even managed to talk about "Ruby on Rails":http://www.rubyonrails.org after my main talk. It was funny I had this big bunch of Java, PHP and Python programmers who spoke to me about helping them make a transaction to "Ruby":http://www.ruby-lang.org and "Ruby on Rails":http://www.rubyonrails.org :D.

I could not do a demo because the projector was not working with any laptop. But I did manage to put down the URL for "David’s":www.loudthinking.com videos

Later got stormed by people, from students wanting to get involved in free software to people who wanted to start a business around free software so they can contribute back code to the community. I spoke to this interesting man who owns a engineering college in Hyderabad. They acutally use only free software there. :)

Ah im tired! My talk was scheduled for only 30 minutes. But people streached it on for 3 hours. The cool part was even the guy who had to speak after me took it pretty well and helped out when ever possible.

Also gave away a cartload of "Ubuntu":http://www.ubuntulinux.org thanks to Bhaskar Ghose.
