Hi all,<div><br></div><div>Anish and I have recently been putting in efforts to reach out to University Students here in New Delhi in an effort to interest more and more talented programmers to join Sugar development efforts. </div>
<div><br></div><div>We observed that there is interest and enthusiasm for students to contribute to such projects, when they get to know about them, however there is less awareness. After the initial outreach/presentation, we have coached them on some of the basics eg getting Fedora up and running, installing sugar-jhbuild (some are still facing problems), IRC, asking questions on the mailing lists etc</div>
<div><br></div><div>The first batch of 5-7 students who've been interested regularly, will soon be joining the list and might be asking questions, as well as looking for projects to contribute to :)</div><div><br></div>
