Hi

Some details about Guido's VC are here:

It's scheduled from 9:30 AM to 11:00 AM on 4th October (which we call
"Day 3") at ICSR Auditorium (ICSR = Industrial Consultancy and
Sponsored Research) and CLT (Central Lecture Theatre). This is a
Question and Answer session, so we will be collecting questions.
Please mail your questions to ask to Guido to fo...@shaastra.org or me.

demo-ing basic tools used in FOSS development. 2nd October / 2PM /
