Agenda of the Meeting
Objective of Chd LUG discussed. Decided as:
1. Develop a core group of members who work after regular intervals to discuss the latest development in the the FOSS world and to just chill around :)
2. Develop a plan of action to promote the use of linux, particularly amongst the student community.

Outcome of the Meeting
1. Mohit will decide upon the guidelines, aims and objectives of the Chd LUG. He ll be helped on this task by all the other members on the mailing list.
2. Siddharth will approach his college authorities to ask for permission to hold a Linux seminar in his college.
3. Gaurav will prepare a seminar to be delivered in case the above point succeeds. The topic chosen by him is "Linux as a Career Option".
4. Nipun will send out the minutes of the meeting to the mailing list (done!).

It was further decided that rather than a big inaugural event, the Chd LUG would instead hold a series of smaller events such as seminars and workshops on Linux across various colleges in and around Chandigarh. After we have gained sufficient visibility and have some experience in managing the events on a smaller scale, we would plan a bigger event somewhere in the first week of February 2008, which will include getting some eminent speakers to come and deliver talks.

Request to all the members
All the members of this mailing list are requested to come up with ideas and suggestions for the Chd LUG. We also need someone to design a logo / banner for us. So if we have any designer amongst us...
And we hope that the next time we meet, we would see a much larger participation from fellow Linux enthusiasts.
