Re: Re: [fedora-india] Mirroring Fedora

I'm using GWGet.. Currently 40% over. Hope to complete it by Monday
cos I'm on 2-8 unlimited plan. I need the repository for my friends in
college hostel where the proxy server(squid of course) limits external
downloads to 25 MB. We're going to ask our college admin to provide an
internal mirror for the 50 odd Fedora 11 users. I helped them install
but updates are tough with this policy.
Thanks.

Fedora Sticker for laptop?
by Salvadesswaran P.S.
I know this is off topic, but I'm not sure where to ask this: I bought
a new laptop without any OS and installed Leonidas straight away. It
works perfectly (better than openSUSE/Ubuntu on same model!) and my
dad will be using it. He wants a sticker to put on it indicating it
runs Fedora 11. Is there a way to get a few stickers? I'll pay for
them if needed.

by Arun SAG
Hi,
I am Arun SAG. A new member to the list. We have conducted a one day LAMP
workshop on 19th August, at Mepco Schlenk Engineering college, Sivakasi,
TamilNadu for the Final year students.The session started with fundamental
web technology and ended up exploring PHP,Perl python with MySQL. There were
totally 120 participants from both the classes including the CSE and IT.
I helped the trainers, by setting up the lab with 60+ Fedora 11 boxes and
assisting participants in hands on.

[Event Report] ACE College of Engineering, Ankushapur, Ghatkesar, India
by Shakthi Kannan
Hi,
Today, I conducted a Fedora workshop at ACE College of Engineering
[1], Ankushapur, Ghatkesar Mandal [2], Ranga Reddy District, Andhra
Pradesh, India.
I have addressed "i-want-2-do-project. tell-me-wat-2-do-fedora",
"Packaging RPM", "Badam Halwa of Embedded Systems" presentations [3].
The attendees were Computer Science and Information Technology
Department students, and faculty. I would like to thank Mrs. K. Jaya
Bharathi, Head of the Computer Science Department, for coordinating
with me for the past one month in organizing this workshop.
They don't yet have a Fedora Lab. I have provided them with Fedora 10,
11 repositories for their offline use (53 GB). I have also given them
Fedora 10, 11 DVDs. They are interested in a MoU between Fedora
project and their college. Do we have anything similar along these
lines?
Ghatkesar is 25 km from Hyderabad, and one hour drive from Hyderabad
through NH-7 [4].
As customary, here are some pictures taken during the visit.
