| Michael Chen, director, Red Hat was recently on a visit to India. In an 
| interview with Swapnil Bhartiya, assistant editor, EFYtimes.com, Chen 
| elucidated upon various issues ranging from the awareness about Linux and 
| open source to India's strengths and the challenges the country is facing in

| Education is another focus area. We need technical education at a national 
| level. We plan to increase contributions from this country. India is the 
| third-largest contributor to the Fedora community, following North America 
| and Europe. Then we have enterprises or SMEs, which have been our focus for 
| long and we have been doing well in this area. I am writing a paper on the 
| success factors that India has and will share it with every other market we  
| are in. We have to work with the government and the education system to 
| ensure that the business model is sustainable.
