Yep ! Let's have another meeting soon ! I've returned back to Jaipur after being
away for almost a month but I'll be out of town again after the 23rd, so let's
meet up before that.
I'll have to take a rain check on whether I can host it this time tho', since we
have people visiting and my 'office' might not be available. Let me confirm on
that tho'. If there are other suggestions on the venue please put them out.

I can do that. You can have my copy of the magazine as well if you are building
a collection (i'm not a subscriber, i just bought it for the OpenBSD and Sabayon
DVDs, unfortunately i left 'em behind in Pune).

Hehehe. Capitalism can work for the community too !
I recommend that everyone should click through the MS Ads when browsing FOSS
friendly sites (I've seen their ads on ./ too) and generate some revenue for
these sites (since most ad revenue models work on the amount of traffic
generated by the website for the advertiser).
