Guidelines for Writing Posts / Site Recommendations

I’m probably not the right person to be writing a Guideline for SUSTOSN but hey! be open!!

This can also be used to modify previous posts. This is not to ridicule, but just as suggestions!

Slogan:

Current: Be Smart, Be open in Mind, Be open Source!!!

Change to: Capitalize two O in open.

Current: Picture
Change to: Text

Articles:

Please enrich articles that were already posted.

With

  • FAQs if the event was an interactive one,
  • more pictures per event or atleast links to (Jamil Ahmed bhai mailed a lot of pictures :) ), Heres a picture that Munir Hasan bhai reported to IOSN, http://www.iosn.net/Members/munirhasan/RanksTelCamp-1/image_mini
  • materials shown or covered the the event,
  • list of participants
  • Problems faced, for example the experience gained in converting all labs (by which SUST OSN have set an example to all other Universities of Bangladesh), should be shared with everyone in details!
  • Correct spelling such as RanksTel (NOT RangsTel), that is not to dishearten sponsors
  • BdOSN, NOT BDOSN
  • Links to news published in other places (http://www.bdosn.org/publications/BdOSN_2007.pdf)
  • quoted text from news published in other places etc.

Quoting from BdOSN report 2007

2. Capacity Building - 2.1 Open Source Camp
This year BdOSN introduce the Open Source Camp in the country. The
first ever Open Source Camp in Bangladesh held at SUST, Sylhet on
23-24th March 2007. CSE Society and SUST OSN jointly organized the
event. Ankur and BdOSN provided the support. Students from SUST
and BRAC University participated in the camp. The 2 Day long camp
focuses the capacity building of the students towards Open Source
Software and Open Content Development. The camp covered the
hands on experience with GNU Linux, Open Office, Mozilla,
LAMP/WAMP as well as Wikipedia.
After the successful camp at SUST, similar camps were organized in
BUET, JU, AIUB and IIUC. A total of 5 Open Source Camps were
organized in the year 2007.

These encourage more participation and sense of belongingness. For example, there were 5 Student from BRAC University Computer Club (BUCC), I ( Annajiat Alim Rasel, covered LAMP/WAMP part on behalf of others), Khandaker Wasim Reza Tonmoy, Mohibuzzaman Zico, Shariful Islam Rabbi and Muttakinur Rahman Choudhury Souro.

I will try to do some of the recommended changes as time permits, but hope I am not the only person doing it! I believe SUST OSN already was doing it, and I may have given the feedback too early! :)

Following are the pictures that Jamil Ahmed Bhai (thanks!) emailed on 23, March 2007. I already uploaded those those this site’s Gallery: ( I hope this will encourage others to do the same :) )
