FOSS Futcha!

Experiments

A note for all readers:

FOSS Futcha is undergoing a major change this month and all of it will be live to keep gauging reader reactions. There will be phases when the blog wil not be viewable at all but its all part of the game. The chanegs being implemented are:

A magazine style theme; resulting in better organisation of data.
FOSS Videos to be included
To-the-point (extremely short) Guides to be replaced by Articles on FOSS and working in FOSS
Content will become very India-centric
An editorial team (ie a number of Futchas and not just me)

Hopefully, these experiments and changes will get over by this month and since October we will have awhoasome FOSS Futcha running… not that this emans that FOSS Futcha would be useless during September (just be prepared for some shocks and inconveniences)
