Hi Steve,

I have recently begun to attend the SVLUG Meetings and
noticed that there are possible openings for speakers.

I am interested in giving a speech if you find that my
proposed topic would be of interest. I am interested
in speaking about the following:
The State of Open Source in India and Its Direct
Impact on Open Source in the US

Essentially, I would be speaking about the current
state of Open Source in India, India's significant
role in the US software market, and how the
availability, or lack of, Indian programmers with Open
Source skills (Linux, Apache, etc.) directly impacts
Open Source in the US (due to TOC calculations). 

If this sounds even a bit interesting, please let me
know and I'll work to submit a more formal proposal.

Also, it may be noteworthy to mention that my company,
America Technologica, Inc. has recently finished
construction on a state of the art 70,000 plus square
foot building for software development (our services
operation). We are also putting the finishing touches
on a Linux based product, and are close to finishing a
smart card based security product. 

Thank you,
Akbar S. Ahmed
COO, President
America Technologica, Inc.
(Website coming soon)
