Hi All!
I joined the address@hidden list long back after I found a reference to it at
the http://www.Tamillinux.org site. I'm a student at IIT-M, hoping to
graduate this month if my exam tomorrow goes well. I've been working on low-
cost Linux based computer labs for a few years now. Here are IIT I have setup
a few labs (with 60+ wkstns) that have diskless PCs remote booting Linux. It
is a great solution and I've wanted to deploy it in schools in partnership
with TNSF and http://www.aidindia.org, NGOs that I work with.
In May I am migrating the comp lab at The School, KFI in Adyar from Windoze
to Linux. I'm also working at wireless-networking govt schools in rural areas
near a farm that this school owns. Some students of the school want to help
me build an iconset for KDE/GNOME/WMaker that local slum/rural population can
better relate to (anyone ever seen a real recycle bin with that cyclic logo
on it?).
I'll be moving to Bangalore soon after I graduate to join a job. Would like
to know how I can work with you guys and take Linux to more schools. I have
contacts with a number of NGOs that operate/fund comps in Chennai Corporation
schools and would love to have assistance from this group.
Sorry for the quick mail. Tomorrow's exam is a real killer!
Regards
Saurabh
