Hi,
I am Pockey Lam from GNOME.Asia Committee. We are organizing
the Biggest Free Software Conference in Bangalore this
weekend. We would like to invite you or your editors to join
our GNOME.Asia Summit 2011 on the 2nd and 3rd April 2011 in
Dayananda Sagar Institutions, Bangalore, India.
To give you a short introduction of GNOME (
http://www.gnome.org) and GNOME.Asia (
http://gnome.asia), the GNOME Free
Software Project includes The GNOME Desktop Environment and
the GNOME Development Platform. The GNOME project intents to
provide high quality FREE (as freedom) desktop to everybody
and an extensive framework for developers to build
applications that integrate into the rest of the desktop.
The GNOME.Asia committee aims to promote the GNOME project
in different Asian countries so that more people can benefit
from the project. We have been organizing annual events in
Beijing, Ho-Chi-Minh City and Taipei. We also encouraged and
fostered the establishment of local GNOME communities as
well.
In this forth chapter of our
summit, we will aim for the greatest GNOME.Asia Summit
of all time. We will have representatives from the
GNOME Foundation, Marketing, Release and Development
Teams joining our conference. We can arrange you to
interview any of our speakers or exhibitors.
With already a thousand
people registered to join the conference, GNOME.Asia
Summit will have the pleasure to continue to bring GNOME
to users and developers in Asia and more specifically
India this year, but also to celebrate the release of GNOME 3.0 with the people who
actually write the software! Not to mention that GNOME 3.0
will be the biggest release of the past 9 years!
The event will bring the
light on the GNOME desktop both from a applications and a
development platform point of view, as well as strengthen
the GNOME community across borders.
Visitors should expect great
insights into how GNOME 3.0
will transform their desktop experience, the changes and
improvements under the hood and how to make the best out
of this new desktop environment both from a developer and
user perspective.
Please let us know if you can join our conference and we
will register you as our press participant.
Thanks in advance for your support and looking forward to
hearing from you soon!
Regards,
Pockey Lam
GNOME.Asia Committee
