Celebrating Freedom with py-Workshop

"Free Software is a software that respects your freedom and the social solidarity of you community. So it's free as in freedom."
                                                                                                                       - Richard Matthew Stallman

It has been 30 years since Richard Stallman the father of free softwares has started the foundation for free softwares. Even though the idea of free softwares was established long back, the actual celebration of the freedom software day was on 28th of August 2004 and since 2006 the event has been held on third Saturday of every September. Being a part of GLUG even, we decided to celebrate software freedom day at our college.
So the best way to celebrate this event was by conducting a workshop where people from different colleges meet up to learn something new. Finally after discussing with the members of GLUG-Mangalore and FSMK we decided to have a two-day workshop on Python Programing language on 28th and 29th of September. On second half of 29th we decided to celebrate Software freedom day.

The Event was a Grand Success and to prove this lets see what our guests have to say
Mr. Sumit M Asok, who was one of the resource persons for the day has shared his experience regarding the event.

One of the participants of Python workshop Sushobitha PS has also shared her views in her blog.
