The three of us were determined to get RV-LUG up and to promote the idea of Linux in RVCE. We saw that other engg. colleges had better awareness when compared to us. Being the 10th best college in INDIA we did not want RVCE to be left behind in this field.

This web site was developed in Linux using vi - Editor (!!!!).The GIMP ( GNU Image Manipulation Program ) and ImageMagick were used to develop all graphics that you see in this site ( both FREE - Of Course ).
