The students fourm for free/open software(SF-FOSS) entered into collaboration with SUN Microsystems. The collaboration was made by Mr. Kunal Kapoor, Campus Ambassdor at ABV-IIITM Gwalior on behalf of Sun Microsystems.
SUN Microsystems is actively involved in taking intiatives and conducting various programmes at Universities throughout the world. One of their initiatives is OSUM. OSUM (pronounced "awesome") is a global community of students that are passionate about Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) and how it is Changing (Y)Our World. It is called a "Meetup" to encourage collaboration between student groups to create an even stronger open source community.
This collaboration has resulted in the global networking of the forum. The various events and initiatives of SUN Microsystems prove to be highly benificial for the students of the institute. The forum provides SUN Microsystems with a channel to propagate their initiatives and activities.
