I’m at FOSS.IN at the National Science Symposium Centre in Bangalore. Mr Atul Chitnis will be giving the keynote in just a few minutes, kicking off this year’s event.
FOSS.IN is one of the largest conferences of its kind in the world. “This is an event for the community, by the community”. The event started in 2001 and today 30% of the attendees are outside of Bangalore.
There’s no keynote speaker at FOSS.IN. Instead, there’s a sampling of attendees (7) that are called up onto stage. Each of them will share the lighting of the traditional Diya to mark the inauguration of this year’s FOSS.IN
