Hello all,
Below is an invitation for proposals for the RGF-Sarai
CSDS programme for short-term FLOSS fellowships. Please feel
to circulate this far and wide. The deadline for submission
of proposals is the 25th of June. Please feel free to address
any queries with regards to this to floss at sarai.net.
Regards,
Gora
--------------------------------------------------------------
Call for proposals:
RGF-Sarai, CSDS, short-term FLOSS fellowships
1 Introduction
The Sarai programme of the Centre for the Study of Developing
Societies, Delhi (http://www.sarai. net) is pleased to
announce fellowships for projects related to Free/Libre and
Open Source Software (FLOSS) activities. This year, we have
partnered with the Rajiv Gandhi Foundation (RGF) who are
providing support for work in the specific area of computing,
and localisation in five Indian languages, namely, Assamese,
Hindi, Kashmiri, Oriya, and Urdu. We also invite proposals
from projects in other FLOSS areas, especially ones that are
relevant to educational, social, and community needs. Any
project that meets the criteria given below is eligible for
the fellowships, but we are particularly interested in:
o Indian language computing, including work on fonts,
rendering, locales, input methods, spell-checking,
etc., as well as in advanced technologies like OCR,
handwriting recognition, and speech-to-text.
o Localisation into Indian languages of user interfaces,
and translation of help documents for FLOSS
applications.
o In the interest of sustained development, we would
like to see the enhancement of, and extensions for
projects funded as part of past Sarai FLOSS
fellowships. In particular, we draw attention to
NewsRack (http://newsrack.in), Hindawi
(http://www.indicybers.com), and ApnaOpus
(http://apnaopus.var.cc).
o Documentation for users of FLOSS tools, particularly
in the area of Indian language computing. The
production of video tutorials would be welcome.
o Development of graphics, multimedia, and publishing
tools. This would include applications for audio/video
editing, animation, and desktop publishing.
Enhancement of existing FLOSS tools is especially
encouraged.
o Putting together, distributing, and supporting a
complete Indian language distribution, using FLOSS
operating systems, and tools.
o Collaboration software, and groupware solutions.
o Writing Linux device drivers, and front-ends for
common hardware, such as wireless cards, graphics
cards, scanners, and printers.
The other significant difference from past practice is that
we will be asking for more of a collaborative approach from
the fellows, both among one another, and with people at
Sarai. The collaboration need not be in the actual
development, but can consist of an ongoing conversation about
one's work, its direction, and current status. While this
has been an implicit expectation in the past, this time we
are making the requirement explicit. The exact details of
these will be worked out with the selected fellows, but will
include things like discussions over IRC, email, and postings
on the Sarai Project Resource Centre (PRC) mailing list.
Fellows will also be asked to prepare a timeline for the
projects, with intermediate milestones, and will be expected
to adhere to them.
2 Applying for the fellowships
We invite students, developers, researchers, and
practitioners interested in the FLOSS arena to apply for the
fellowships. While there is no prescribed format for the
applications, we expect them to be in sufficient detail for a
reviewer to sensibly evaluate them. Attention to details,
such as a plan of work that addresses what is possible to
accomplish within the limited project period, a projection of
how the work might be continued after that, and a discussion
of the possible impact of the project, is strongly
recommended. In particular, we will look favourably on
projects aimed at eventual deployment, rather than
development per se. Please mail your application, along with
a resume, to floss at sarai.net , with the subject line of
"RGF-Sarai FLOSS fellowships". As this information is
intended to be public, also subscribe to the PRC mailing list
at https://mail.sarai.net/mailman/listinfo/prc, and post a
copy there, failing which your final proposal will be
forwarded there by one of us. Enquiries are invited at floss
at sarai.net , and on the PRC list, including questions on
how to frame proposals. The last date of submission is
midnight IST on Sun., June 25th, 2007. The projects will run
for a total of about six months, with a final workshop to be
held at Sarai, CSDS, Delhi, where the fellows will be
expected to present a summary of their work. Besides this, as
part of our engagement with the RGF, we will be holding
workshops in regional locations, and the FLOSS fellows will
be asked to be present at events local to them. The total
amount of the fellowship will be Rs. 70, 000.
3 Conditions
Applicants should have a valid bank account in any bank
operating in India. These are support grants, and the fellows
are free to pursue their primary occupations in parallel, as
long as they keep working on proposed projects. The fellows
must be willing to make a release of their final work under
any open-source licence approved by the Open Source
Initiative (OSI). Please see under
http://www.opensource.org/licenses for a complete list.
Proposals from teams, partnerships, collectives, and faculty
on the behalf of a group of students are welcome, so long as
the grant amount is administered by a single individual, and
the funds are deposited in a single bank account in the name
of an individual.

Hot news ....Around the world... this is interesting ....' true' ... Authentic...!!!
( This new company, founded by a bunch of Stanford MBA students, is
creating quite a buzz. ) u could be a member of a new google ....... which pays to surf the net ... free..!!!!! for the first time in the internet history.....
Hi Friends
I have worked just for 8 days and my monthly check is plus 45000 $ and will keep on increasing.... this is not online job..... its the next google which is already very popular, the early signups also profit by getting shares with the internet company which will pay a bigger check for the shares ... then the regular one ...!!!)
(Bill Gates and The founder of YouTube has also been saying that AGLOCO will make quite a hit in the internet when the toolbar comes out. Sign up now before it get huge. Don't miss this opportunity.)
Hello friends
AGLOCO is the furtue of the internet.
Thousands of people have already joined Agloco, jump on board NOW !!! Every once in a while a real
business opportunity does come around.The Agloco deal is one of the rarest due to its "revolutionary" nature vis-a-vis the current internet environment.
The Agloco biz is probably the easiest way to make money online. For all internet users this is great news !!!
It is even better news for retired seniors, housewives, students and anyone who is interested to earn some pocket money,without spending much time and effort.
You DON'T have to be any computer techie...NO ROCKET SCIENCE HERE.All you DO need is a computer and internet connection which CAN BE SHARED among family members .You surf the Web as you NORMALLY DO, NOTHING MORE.You DON'T have to refer others IF you don't like to do it 'cos you'll still earn. Referring others to join you can of
course increase your earning but it's YOUR OWN CHOICE.
AGLOCO™ is short for "A Global Community." The founders of this company plan to do just that, create a global community of users. The purpose of this community, in short, is to make money. Most - if not all - online global communities already do this, but, for the most part, the money is not put into the hands of the community members, but only into the hands of those who own the infrastructure of the community.
But here's the really cool part: it isn't just cash that AGLOCO users will receive for their time. AGLOCO users will also, eventually, receive publicly traded shares in the company, representing real ownership of the company. The cash one could receive is good
enough, but the potential for ownership and future appreciate of share values makes this a unique opportunity.
As the AGLOCO community grows, the company will generate more revenue, meaning the potential for increased shareholder value is strong. Since it costs nothing to become an AGLOCO member, this is indeed a very worthwhile investment of one's time, time already spent online (which, before now, only made someone else rich).
EARN WITHOUT EVER INVESTING A PENNY!!! This may look like something you have seen before, but I bet you may not have ever seen THIS YET ON THE INTERNET!
Agloco costs you nothing. It's free. And it always will be.
Agloco pays you by
the hour to have their small Viewbar open.
Agloco pays you by the hour to have your friends have their Viewbar open.
Once you start using the Viewbar, you'll get a check every month in the mail.
Once you sign up, you'll get your own referral URL that your friends can use to sign up Every 5 people that you refer to Agloco will double your income.
Let's build a big network and see if we can make something from this. JOIN NOW : click here to start earning and to sign up http://www.agloco.com/r/BBBD4110

other about Bombay high court adopting Linux/OSS.
In our opinions section, this month, the community opines on how
whether IPR is a boon or a bane. Also, in the 'Down Memory Lane'
series, we look at the history of the KDE project.

Dear Readers,
First off, on behalf of the whole team of LINUX For You, here's
wishing a very happy Dussehra and Diwali to the whole community.
This month, LINUX For You has bundled another 'hugely-requested'
distro DVD with it - CentOS 4.4 - which many believe is the closest
one can get to RHEL for free.
On the editorial front, we have a mega story on the trends in Linux
and open source usage in the mighty Banking, Financial Services and
Insurance (BFSI) sector of the Indian industry. Along with this, we
have our regular hardware focus on 'Linux Laptops' and software focus
on Linux based High Performance Computing Solutions.
Under the opinions section, this month, the community opines on how
India can develop a community of open source developers and thus
become a 'net-giver' to the open source world. Also, in the 'Down
Memory Lane' series, we look at the history of the GNOME project.

The topic for CommunitySpeak this month is "What would make a Windows

adopt Linux instead?" Also, in the 'Down Memory Lane' series, we look
at the history of Knoppix.

Dear Readers,
First off, we would like to thank our readers for an overwhelming
response to the June 2006 issue of LINUX For You.
The monsoon season brings with it a gift that we are sure most of our
readers were eagerly awaiting. For the third month in succession, LFY
has bundled a DVD, and that too, a distro that had virtually become
the 'numero uno request' on our readers' wish list - Debian Linux 3.1.
Check it out and do send us your feedback.
On the editorial front, we have a great article on the tuXlabs project
which is a partnership between the Shuttleworth Foundation and South
African schools to setup self-sustainable computer centres in South
African schools using open source. We have also included a resource
manual - the tuXlabs Cookbook - in this month's LFY CD that serves as
a recipe for setting up a tuXlab and explains formal processes like
education, application, installation, support and training that define
the tuXlabs model. We hope that this article and the cookbook will
serve as facilitators for the policy makers in our country to take
full advantage of open source in our education system.
Starting this month, a new column has been introduced called
CoomunitySpeak. Here, we take a topic and post it on various LUGs for
members to give their opinion on the same and the best 5 responses get
a place in the magazine. This month's topic is 'Why is it that a clear
majority of world's top ten supercomputers are powered by GNU/Linux?'
Also, in the 'Down Memory Lane' series, we look at the history of the
Firefox project.

Hello all,
Greetings from the Linux For You team!
As you all know, last month we launched a new initiative called
CommunitySpeak where we pose a question to various ILUG mailing lists
and publish the top five responses (selected by our technical editors)
in the magazine. Thanks to all those who responded to last month's
question on "why a majority of the world's top 10 supercomputers are
powered by Linux". The best five among the responses received are to
be published in the July 2006 issue of LFY.
The selected responses were sent by Vishnu Vyas (Chennai), S R Parthan
(Chennai), R Subramanian (Chennai), Manu Konchady (Bangalore) and P
Sriram (Chennai. Thanks again for your participation.
This month we have chosen the topic: "What would make a Windows user
pick up a Linux magazine?"
No, this is not a marketing tactic. We are *really* curious. What
would make Windows users pick up a Linux magazine? How can we convince
them to read about and adopt Linux and other free and open source
software? Would they be interested in reading about free business
software than run on Windows?
What's your take on this? Our eyes and ears are wide open and we are
waiting to listen to your ideas. Please write to us at
writetojanani@... with a CC to atul.goel@...
The top five responses will be published in the August 2006 issue of
Linux for You.
Look forward to your responses.
Thanks,
Janani Gopalakrishnan, Freelance Writer
Atul Goel, Asst. Associate Editor, LFY
