Ghar ki murgi

While the desi IT press chooses to pointedly ignore and scorn the Coppermine Picture Gallery I was interviewed today about the same by Internet Magazine, UK. It is a print magazine, beyond that I don’t know anything about it – does anyone know?

I have also been pondering about an elitist Open Source event scheduled to happen in Delhi in Feb… more on that soon

  • this delhi event, is it the one by LFY?

  • Which arm of the desi IT press? They’re all the same species but each arm is a slightly different race.

    • They’re all the same species
      Perhaps true 🙂

  • laziness

    Doc i know i am being lazy and not going through the docs :), but a quick question…. Is it the same as gallery. I just have to copy some files to my html dir. No root access required, just ability to run some shell commands?

    • Not Lazy anymore

      🙂 I got over my laziness
      Great and real neat stuff. I never knew this existed!!
      Its WOW! I wonder which idiot scorned over it..

        Thank you – we are averaging more than 1000 downloads a day from Sourceforge and several ISPs are giving it as a standard install.

    >pointedly ignore and scorn

    I’d be interested in the scorn comment – who scorned and where/when?

    Also, has the desi IT press been given a heads-up about this project at all? They are not known for actively going out and *hunting* for stuff, you know.

      An almost verbatim quote “Doing grassroot awareness work is better than developing…” Have lately noticed how the colour of his writings these days is yellow tinged…

      Need I say more 😀

        Hmmm, how the once mighty and respected have fallen.

        That must the single most stupid remark I have heard in years – it effectively says “talking about it is more useful than doing something about it”!
