It will include the following topics. -- What is Open-Source -- History of Open-Source -- Open-Source Vs Closed source -- Open-Source license -- About the Apache Software Foundation and it's history -- About the Apache Way -- ICLA and how it should be signed to contribute in ASF -- Apache Incubator -- The Foundation structure -- The projects under the Apache umbrella -- Mailing list and it's usage -- How to pick a project based domain/programming language interest # 2.Workshop This is the next interesting and important part of the event, after the session, our volunteers with work with 8 students for the whole day to make their first real contribution (patch) to Apache project. These students will work on issues from Apache OFBiz or Apache Roller project. -- Q. Why we choose Apache OFBiz and Roller project? ALC Indore is having volunteers, who are committer and member of PMC in OFBiz and Roller project. Thus they will be able to provide their best mentorship on these project. The ALC Indore team is prepared a list of low hanging issues from both the projects on which students can work. -- Q. Why only 8 Students for the workshop? Since it's our first event of this type, we are also learning. Our plan is, one volunteer will spend the whole day with one student, in this way the student will get the individual focused attention. More details on the event can be found at [4]. Please feel free to share your kind thoughts and suggestions.
