Pakistan and develop a community in the country within the next 2-3 years&lt;br /&gt;
for large-scale open source initiatives.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The benefits would be three-pronged: to the community and nation in&lt;br /&gt;
large, to the fresh graduates, and the alumni of FAST and other leading universities.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The forum aims to achieve these objectives:&lt;br /&gt;
* Develop a forum where developers can talk about open source software development&lt;br /&gt;
* Train developers / fresh graduates on open source technologies and&lt;br /&gt;
tools &lt;br /&gt;
* Educate user community about open source software by providing&lt;br /&gt;
absolutely free software which is free to download with complete source code and documentation.  This software will be easy to install and user friendly&lt;br /&gt;
* To sharpen the skills of fresh computer science graduates so that they can&lt;br /&gt;
be easily absorbed by the industry&lt;br /&gt;
* Promote entrepreneurial activities by encouraging alumni and graduates&lt;br /&gt;
to start their own organizations to install/implement/train end users for this product for a fee based on the knowledge of this project&lt;br /&gt;
* Promote efficiencies in business management with the use of cost effective business applications&lt;br /&gt;
* Make software / latest technology affordable for all sizes of business which they can customize according to their needs&lt;br /&gt;
* Provide stable, standardized business applications for the users&lt;br /&gt;
* Increase the knowledge about business applications like General&lt;br /&gt;
Ledger, Accounts Receivables, Accounts Payables, Fixed Assets, Budgeting, Cash&lt;br /&gt;
Flow, etc. amongst the computer scientists of Pakistan&lt;br /&gt;
* Give the software development community of Pakistan a chance to work&lt;br /&gt;
as part of a large team&lt;br /&gt;
* Provide the alumni a platform to make a difference on the national&lt;br /&gt;
level &lt;br /&gt;
* Promote the sharing of knowledge and experience between alumni, &lt;br /&gt;
fresh graduates and students&lt;br /&gt;
* Have at-least a few industry strength projects with credit going to the universities for providing this software to the industry. In the west you hear about different universities contributing to the society/industry by offering products as well as research.  We would like this culture to grow in Pakistani Universities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Ahmed Habeeb</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 24 Jun 2003 05:08:30 -0000</pubDate><guid>https://sourceforge.net5d7185acaa1b8d336c73150fd5881235c51f61ae</guid></item></channel></rss>
