This year i got some info for RHCE and the CPN(computer point Nepal) gave me A cap for free . The guys from FOSS NEPAL were also a cheerful lot though they kept treating me like a know nothing novice .
When i inquired about the FOSS pakage which had nepali software they was like “yo chain tapain ley office lai nepali ma chalauna paryo bhaney install garni ho”
I asked them what other pakges they had other than openoffice.org and they were still like “esma word , powerpoint haru sab nepali mai aunchaa” It was good that they were distrubiting Neplinux for just rs 20 …….. Kudos to FOSS Nepal guys for that ………
I also liked the OLPC stall ….. these guys were also good …… and there was also a stall for devnagari in braile …… i wanted to inquire but my friend were too busy buying stuff andi had to keep pace with them ….. I even could not remember the name of the software developer ………
