FOSS India Awards announced and… w00t!!
Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls…. GNUSim8085 has been named in the winners list of FOSS India awards. Announcement can be found here.
I happened to browse through my set of “list” emails and as usual was about to delete the LFY mail sent to some lists. But then something told me, “read” that mail. Opened the mail, and it spoke of FOSS India awards and some winners list. Then I scroll down the winners list to find this name “GNUSim8085″ on that. Now, where on planet earth did that come from???
GNUSim8085 was a project started by srid in his college days. He decided to orphan it at one point where Onkar and myself pitched in and took over the development and maintainance. I guess, its been one year now almost after we joined the project along with Srid and this is a big surprise. A welcome recognition and hope this triggers contribution from students to this project. We have a plethora of feature requests that has poured in suddenly. Students, grab this opportunity.
