FSHM PuducherryHi everyone 👋 It's time to do <a class="hashtag" href="https://fsmi.social/tag/introductions" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Introductions</a>. We are an organization composed of students & working professionals who propagate the principles of <a class="hashtag" href="https://fsmi.social/tag/foss" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FOSS</a>, <a class="hashtag" href="https://fsmi.social/tag/digitalprivacy" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DigitalPrivacy</a> & <a class="hashtag" href="https://fsmi.social/tag/digitalcommons" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DigitalCommons</a> among students in the union territory of <a class="hashtag" href="https://fsmi.social/tag/puducherry" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Puducherry</a>, India. We have been functioning as a <a class="hashtag" href="https://fsmi.social/tag/gnu" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GNU</a>/#Linux users group (#PuduvaiGLUG) since 2011 with guidance from <a class="u-url mention" href="https://fsmi.social/users/fsftn" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@fsftn</a> and then matured into a registered society of our own. Here is what we do, 👉 We approach educational institutions in and around Puducherry and help them set up & nurture a <a class="hashtag" href="https://fsmi.social/tag/glug" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GLUG</a> in their institutions. The GLUGs within each institution are responsible for propagating our stated principles and help them step into the FOSS ecosystem. 👉 We also organize an annual FOSS conference in Puducherry & discuss the state of digital commons here and ways to improve them. 👉 We strongly believe that public institutions should adopt <a class="hashtag" href="https://fsmi.social/tag/foss" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FOSS</a> & <a class="hashtag" href="https://fsmi.social/tag/openstandards" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenStandards</a> in the public interest. We also contribute data to <a class="hashtag" href="https://fsmi.social/tag/openstreetmap" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenStreetMap</a>, <a class="hashtag" href="https://fsmi.social/tag/wikipedia" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Wikipedia</a> & <a class="hashtag" href="https://fsmi.social/tag/beacondb" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BeaconDB</a> projects. 👉 We track the state of public infrastructure in <a class="hashtag" href="https://fsmi.social/tag/puducherry" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Puducherry</a> by mapping them in <a class="hashtag" href="https://fsmi.social/tag/osm" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OSM</a>. For example, by mapping street lights, bus stops, public toilets, drinking water, etc. 👉 We demand the UT & Union govt. to safeguard citizen's fundamental right to privacy and bring data breaches to their notice. We campaign for an inclusive digital society. 👉 Some of our members also build and release their own FOSS projects. We also organize <a class="hashtag" href="https://fsmi.social/tag/mapathon" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mapathon</a> & <a class="hashtag" href="https://fsmi.social/tag/hackathon" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Hackathon</a> to contribute to digital commons. 👉 We strive to bridge the <a class="hashtag" href="https://fsmi.social/tag/digitaldivide" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DigitalDivide</a> through FOSS & Commons. We demand the state to strengthen the public telecom & Internet provider <a class="hashtag" href="https://fsmi.social/tag/bsnl" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BSNL</a> and it's infrastructure. Together, we build a movement to actively shape our day to day digital experience & strive to improve the quality of life for everyone 🫰 "Enabling consensual technology for the masses", that's our motto.
