There has been a bloodbath on ilugc regarding petty issues like one ignorant guy using a .ppt in an open source conf, one's choice of posting in other languages and other stuff...all the more, there has been lots of mails reminding eah other of mailing list guidelines, etiquettes, common sense etc.,
Hypocrisy to the MAX i would say...forget about all these artificial rules, what about the natural rules like respect for each other, courtesy, tolerance, humulity and so on...
Much has been criticised about NRCFOSS and how everything that it does is not helpful to FOSS cause and so on. Grow UP!!! with out NRCFOSS, ilugc would not have had the same kind of visibility in TN atleast. NRCFOSS at AU-KBC has been humble enough to let these giys run the show and there is no penny credit given for this simple fact...any LUG guy knows how much sponsorship money NRCFOSS has contributed and/or arranged to run your favourite fossconf show in the world..
NRCFOSS has also sponsored so many of these highly learned community members to participate in workshops and conferences organized by NRCFOSS. Yet these gentlemen speak of government money being waste..i dont know whether its waste in consumption or waste in expenditure.....
ALso with out a simple understanding of the objective of FOSS LAB server, people are crying out at the uselessness of the utility....paining to see iluustruous guys join the noise generator...
if only people dont forget analytical reasoning and common sense, we would live peacefully and have a good SNR ( Source code to Need Ratio)

I agree that NRCFOSS has helped ILUGC a lot . But just like every LUG it is only a group of 't members with different opinions .
Maybe you didn't know NRCFOSS was supposed to organise a event like FOSSCONF as per section D of the initiative
So fossconf is as much a NRCFOSS event as it is of ILUGC , but as you said NRCFOSS is not taking the credit for all the activities it had done with ILUGC .
The previous fossconf was mostly organised by NRCFOSS , and it had not been credited properly :(
By FOSSLAB Server you meant me , can you give me a example of one student who started contribution to FOSS with the help of FOSSLAB server ?
I really liked and support your view on SNR :)
foss lab server has had some flak and it wasnt personal against you pavi...hope you get the essence of the frustration right....
It's ok .
You remember me being concerned about foss lab server . I do like the idea .. why I had mentioned it in my post was that I remember ministerial guys asking questions about fosslabserver like can you allow messages to pass from client to other client in a fosslab server !
They also asked stuff like if you update server here at NRCFOSS will it be updated at colleges ?
