  • Discuss l10n in India. What set people off and made them let off steam, and what can we do better going forward?
  • Cover what happened at foss.in/2007 and ask about sessions for foss.in/2008 . Must be community or participation focused -- no presentations!
  • Discuss some of our "platform strategy" in India to wean people away from using proprietary technologies. In particular:
    • Check out what India's President once said to Bill Gates
    • Despite the above, ISVs still flock to MSFT certification, including the eGovernance project, which uses MHTML...
    • What should our tools story be?
      • Firebug, Venkman, DOMInspector, select editors?
    • What kinds of applications are people building, and do they know about web standards?
    • Discuss our strategy to interview Infosys, Wipro, Tata Consulting
    • Discuss our strategy for workshops in Pune and Bangalore
    • And... ask you for help :-)
