Been a hectic few months, but I could hardly miss posting about this. Some of you might remember the little F/OSS miniconf, we did last year at Techkriti, IIT Kanpur’s technical festival. FOSSKriti ’08 sparked off a number of great F/OSS events in colleges across the country. FOSSKriti ’09 is now here, bigger and badder than ever (for small values of ever :P)!
Last year, we started planning the event sometime in mid-Jan, and we did the best we could in about a month. This year, Shashank (better known as Chintal), Zakir, Surya, and the rest of team had more time, and you can tell that they’ve been busy. The theme for this year is "The Open Web", and we have an awesome line-up of talks, workshops, and hackfests around this theme. We’ve got folks from Mozilla, Drupal, Yahoo, and Sahana and more. It’s going to be four butt-kickingly amazing days!
Bottom line: If you’re in the vicinity, be there. It’s happening from Feb 12th to 15th, at IIT Kanpur.
p.s.: It blows that I can’t make it. :(

We missed your energy from fosskriti 08 this year at fosskriti 2009. :(
Hey, again! Glad you could make it this year too. Could you post specifics to fosskriti@techkriti.org? Always good to have feedback on the event.
