Also had a face to face meet with many opensource contributors meeting mostly on IRC

as we(Me and Rahul Bhalerao) had a talk on very first day in afternoon session, initially it was planned at 5pm but in final schedule it was at 2pm, so we mostly concentrate on our talk,

there was good audience in our talk, something around 100 and more, with majority of student..

and got a good response from some Tibetan students looking for there language to be recognize from OS point of view...

Also some people shows there concerns about Open Type Specs 1.6 and Its imact on present font rendering..

Got a good feedback on the way we covered all the i18n architecture in one shot..
