We had recently received the opportunity to provide video conferencing and live streaming services for the recently concluded fourth International FOSS Conference conducted by ICFOSS which was conducted from till 27-12-11 and concluded on 29-12-11. The technical support we offered was designed to be simple and can be replicated with minimum of effort to cover any other Free Software event. We have created an article on the technical aspects of setting up video streaming in Ubuntu and posted it on Ubuntu Manual. Check out the post on How to stream your webcam videos live online using Ubuntu. Feel free to share it with other FOSS enthusiasts who want to organise similar FOSS related events.

Online testing was an idea we stumbled upon when we were looking for an efficient and scalable way to select people who had good programming capabilities. Our earlier approach to selection of programmers was to shortlist based on the resume and call the person for an interview where we gave them a small programming task. And then we had the technical and HR interviews as well. But, in our view, this approach had a couple of weaknesses and we think these have effectively been taken care of by the new online testing approach.

When we started Zyxware we had no clue as to how to start a company, how to and what to document, how to do our accounting and stuff. We had to undergo a process of trial and error to figure out what are the things we were supposed to do as a company. We don't want another entrepreneur to waste his/her time in doing what we have done. With this view we have created our Open Documentation Policy.
