[ug-bosug] Re: BOSUG meeting this Saturday

[Shivakumar GN]

Hi Guys,

Tomorrow I am travelling and will not be able to make it for the meeting.
It would be great if one of you can post the points discussed on the mailing
list. esp the ones related to foss.in.
Some items that crossed my mind:
- Target whom - users/developers/both.
- What can the users/developers expect.
- Exhibit/promo material.
- Resources that will be required - what kind of resources to ask the
organisers.
- List of "projects on grab" items targetting college students.
...

cheers
Shiv
