Charles, Chandrakant and Kannan,

It is good to see the activity related to Libreoffice for India. libreoffice is one of the most 
important flagship product of foss but in India the activity of promoting the lo is almost 
negligible. Its sad and we should certainly do some concrete effort regarding the same.

I would also like to be part of it actively and would like to work a lot for libreoffice in India.  
I am working for Hindi language since ten years in FOSS localization world. Earlier, I was 
associated with openoffice as well. I know lot of localization contributors/coordinators of 
different Indian language. I think they can also help us out to do organized marketing activity 
related to libreoffice in India.

thanks!

Dear Chandrakant,

I am delighted to see your mail.

Our team has been conducting Spoken Tutorial based SELF workshops on 
LibreOffice, mainly in academia, training tens of thousands of people.  
Lately, I have been trying to come up with a print edition of 
LibreOffice Manuals (500 copies) to promote LibreOffice in colleges, who 
need a "printed book" for the software to be included in their 
curriculum.  This project has taken a lot longer than what I expected, 
because I seem to have not followed some "procedures".  I hope to 
close 
this activity soon.

Next time when you come to Mumbai, please drop by at IIT and we can 
discuss how to take things forward in India.  I believe that you can 
contribute quite a bit on the Indic language front.  Best wishes,

Kannan

  Hi Charles.

  Thanks for welcoming me in the community.

  Yes. C-DAC is one of the organization which has been into Localization and 
its marketing since quite some time now.

  I have personally  been active in some other open source communities and i 
have noticed that there are no Libre Office promotional activities being carried 
out as a community.

  I personally would like to contribute in this community driven promotional 
activity in a better way.

  Dear Chandrakant,

  Welcome to the LibreOffice project! I have seen your earlier posts on
  the L10N mailing list and it's great to see that more localizations can
  be created. On top of that C-DAC has been a long standing contributor to
  the old Openoffice.org project :-)

  It is a bit unclear to me whether there are active teams promoting
  LibreOffice around India though. We have various contacts with public
  institutions there however. Given the scope of your involvement, I guess
  you have a team working with you on LibreOffice localizations and
  marketing?

  Best,

  Charles.

  Hello All.

  My name is Chandrakant Dhutadmal. I am from Pune, India. Currently i
  am working as senior technical officer, at Centre for Development of
  advanced computing (C-DAC), Pune.

  I have been working in Localization domain since about last 8 years. I
  had earlier used Open Office and conducted training and spread
  awareness about open office among lot of people from various sectors
  like Academics, Govt, NGO's, and SME's. I have also been 
attending
  various meeting and conferences to spread the word.

  I have also been using Libre Office since quite some time now. I think
  i can be a good contributor as a Member of Marketing team and take
  this product to newer heights of success.

  I would also like to know if there is any marketing group active in
  India who promotes Libre Office in India and let me know how can i
  participate.


  Cheers,
  Chandrakant Dhutadmal
  Senior Technical Officer
