Sponsoring FOSS.IN

When we announced the resumption of FOSS.IN earlier this year, we didn’t think we would have too many problems doing so. Everyone missed the event, and the outbreak of joyous “huzzah”s was proof enough of that. But we had not counted with one thing – sponsor weariness.

Why I came back…

This is a long overdue post, but life has been kind of busy for me since December last year… Saying goodbye to your baby… At the end of FOSS.IN/2009, I announced that I was stepping down as the project lead of Team FOSS.IN. It was really hard for me to do – FOSS.IN is one [...]

Raghu Dixit Project in London
