Context And Goals

This task is intended to spread the G.I.S.S. network to the east and to join our efforts with indian community radios, in a context where lots of communities are living together.

Contacts with Nomad India

Some serious contacts have been made with Nomad India to organize some worshops in Dahanu, 150 kms north of Mumbai :

"Nomad India has a small electronics lab in Dahanu near Mumbai. Our partner organisation called Tamarind Tree has accommodation facility for 25 to 30 people here and we can use the space for workshops."

Contacts with FSF bangalore

Some contacts have been taken with the FSF in Bangalore ( Zainab Bawa and Kiran Jonnalagadda ) who organized several editions of "Barcamp Bangalore", the format of the event we would organize is still to be defined.

Nomad India also have some partners in Bangalore : Maraa that could help organizing an event in Bangalore.

To do
