Dear Satya,<br>Hi! I am Debayan Banerjee. I am a final year student at NIT Durgapur in the department of Information Technology. Every year we organise a National Level Technical Symposium on GNU/Linux and Free Software calle "Mukti". This years event is titled Mukti09 and will happen from 6th to 8th February .<br>
This year, we intend to make a paradigm shift from past year's activities. We wish to have more seminars/talks/workshops intead of competitions. To realise this goal, we would love to have you visit us and deliver a talk on the Linux kernel. I am aware of your GSoC project for BootChart. We will be able to provide you with travel sponsorship. You have the entire month of January and the first week of February to visit us. Any date would be alright at our end in that window.<br>
Our institute is fairly aware of the Linux kernel as a technology. See <a href="http://lug.nitdgp.ac.in/download/linux/videos/kernel/">http://lug.nitdgp.ac.in/download/linux/videos/kernel/</a> . It would be perfect if your talk would span from an introduction to the kernel, its subsystems and architecture, to giving a hacking demo.<br>
In case it is not possible for you to some to Durgapur during that time, kindly suggest some names to me, who could give a nice talk on the linux kernel.<br><br>~Debayan<br><a href="http://debayan.wordpress.com">http://debayan.wordpress.com</a><br clear="all">
