The "right" person from DSK is my friend. In fact, he has helped us in the PLUGMASH event in 2007 by giving some 15 brand new PCs for the event. Pictures here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/niyam/1620741871/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/niyam/1621585658/ We were trying to arrange a meeting during GNUnify so that many more people can interact and exchange ideas and work further on different applications they require. Due to a heavy schedule, it could not materalise. We can now have a common meeting of DSK with PLUG, POCC, PuneTech and other similar groups so that together we can have some fruitful association. There is a big opportunity for various projects and applications on that hardware platform. Please let me know your views so that we can further go ahead.
