So what if Hamara can pull it as an ecosystem or platform. Vik what we have is ample power of Youth and skill what they lack is the direction , certainly hacking Hamara could be one path , industry needs skilled manpower now . One big opportunity which i emphasize every one is get skills the jobs will follow. So with Hamara if you can give them both i think it will create a good talent pool . -Satya Satyaakam.net <http://satyaakam.net/> | fossevents.in | _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc ILUGC Mailing List Guidelines: http://ilugc.in/mailinglist-guidelines
