Additionally, a critical study of this document would be helpful towards coming up with real smart Open Source product ideas whose implementation can establish TWINCLING Society among the likes of Apache, FreeBSD etc.

A face-2-face meeting is scheduled on 26th Jan at 10:30 am in Begumpet to discuss potential product ideas. Please call up +91-9441071232 in case you would like to join in for the meeting.

If we can articulate a 'TWINCLING Social Networking Platform' (TSNP), analogous to Eclipse Platform for technology or .Net platform for WebServices, then the next generation service(s) can be built, managed, deployed, aggregated and provisioned using this platform.

All the members of the Society are also invited to pool in their ideas and suggestions for the product.

The objective of the Society in 2006 is to kick-start a major, multi-year product development initiative which delivers on customer requirements that are just around the horizon !

Please send in your suggestions
All ideas and suggestions are very very very welcome !
