[PLUG] Suggestion or Ideas for including LINUX based event(competition) for a College EVENT

[Sugandha Naolekar]

Yeah! Dat sounds interesting! Infact, even I thought that rather than
arrangin aome kind of competitions and all, better we should let them know
how to install softwares in linux, how different are the extensions of the
softwares here, how to untar tar files, and installation of rpm's and
all...small things.! We can make them realize the power of VMBox, and how we
can figit with the system files, iptables and security wise how things are
different by assigning  root privileges!

To make it short, we should make them give a feel of linux world by these
all small things and make them familiar!
