Hello Bobinson, Anoop and Mailinglist Members

As you know the stall will be functioning on 8th, hence if all
of you can bring in your 2 cents/paisa :) on 7th evening to
ILUG Meeting venue for setting up the machines and also
be present on 8th ( or give some mentoring to others who
are planning to be present on 8th ) it would be great.

If we can go as planned, ours would the best stall for sure.

My 2 cents :
Big brother attitude and privacy concerns in Kerala and India ??
What should we do about it ?

Contact me @ 9995717112 or Sreenadh ( 9747173432 ) for coordination.

ILUG Members @ the stall :
Hari
Manu
Sreenadh
Sameer
Kevin Sha


Thank You
Regards
Sameer Mohamed Thahir
