Some new information has emerged. Ordinatrix is actually a non-competitive event and though they encourage you to make and bring both web sites and movies for their Web Designing and Movie Making events, they say that even if you don’t make and bring, you can go there and learn because they will be calling experts from each field and conducting workshops.

Exun members who are interested in going for Ordinatrix to learn Web Designing or Movie Making, please post your names in the comments.

You only have to decipher the bit between the stars, the rest are clues which should, ideally, only be used when you are on the verge of giving up.

YOU MAY USE ANY MEANS NECESSARY.

THE COMMAS ARE MEANT ONLY TO BE SEPERATORS.

NOTHING APART FROM THE COMMAS MAY BE ASSUMED TO BE SEPERATORS.

PGP 8.0 Freeware

Everybody in Exun should download and install PGP on their systems so that if we have to share some important information (like a new password to something), then we can do so without thinking twice.

Those who don’t have PGP may get left out of important communications.

PS: Unix users can use GnuPG or GPG

Hey Guys

Domain Square 2004 will take place next week. As this will be an all-classes event, we need the cooperation of more Exun members. Those who work also get to play, and those who don’t will get left out, so sad.

Anyway, we need Representatives for Classes VIII, X, XI and XII. The position of Representative for Class IX has already been filled. In addition, we will have two Representatives for Class VIII instead of one because they will also be incharge of Classes VI and VII.

The job of the Representatives is quite simple. We have posters, and they have to make sure that the Domain Square announcement is made in each section of their respective class.

Domain Square will take place over 6 days starting on Wednesday, 21^st of July and ending Monday, 2^nd of August. There will only be one round for each class. Each class from VI to XII will have its individual competition on one day each between 21 July and 2 August. There will be one winner from each Class. We will take between 16 and 20 people from each Class on a first come first serve basis.

Announcements will start tomorrow and posters will be posted. The Domain Square website is operational at www.exunclan.com/d2.

After each day of Gaming, Domain Square Reps will have their own LAN gaming party till 3:30 PM (time when buses leave). So hurry up and join as a Rep by posting your name in the comments. Discretion of choosing members for D[2] lies with me.

There is a two-event competition on 29th July.

It has Web Designing (Classes 6 to 9) and Movie Making (Classes 10 to 12). The Movie Making is weird, and I don’t know how it works, but for Web Designing, you need to make a picture based on one of the topics they’ve given beforehand and bring it on a CD.

Topics for Web Designing

• Supermarket
  
• Aeronautics
  
• Fashion Designing
  
• News
  
• Travel Agency
  

They have a website http://www.tagoreint.com/

Not a revolutionary idea, but let me outline it.

I’ve wanted to learn ASP and PHP – web languages basically – for a long time now, but the books are hundreds of pages thick and I don’t have the resolve to open and read them. Similarly, I have read books on topics that others would like to know about but do not have the patience to sit and read them for themselves.

I suggest that when a significant number of Exun members want to learn about a specific topic, they can post a plea on ln(exun) titled “Sessions@Exun: ” and ask other members who also want to learn about the same topic vote in the comments. It would also request any member who is versed in the topic to come forward.

When a knowledgable person comes forward, s/he can be asked to conduct a little class during stayback outlining the topic, giving the basics, and referring to appropriate books and reference material on the Internet. This privilege could be extended to accept non-Exun members into the Sessions who might get interested and want to join Exun.

I would, as I mentioned, like to learn ASP and PHP, and I know a person (namely Maanick) who is versed in the subject, and I would like it if he conducted a Session on it. And, for example, I’ve read this book on cryptography, which is very interesting yet is highly repetitive. So I could mash it down and conduct a Session on cryptography.

Please post your comments (votes) on whether you like the idea, or whether it should be dismissed.

I, am, at your service,

–Karan
