Overall this book deserves “must read” if you are a student or you are an experienced professional who don’t have much exposure to FOSS. The book is “worth reading” even if you are a contributor of any project. It clearly explains the initial steps of FOSS mentorship. The book is an independent piece of work and is not specific to any FOSS project or community. The guidelines given in the book are applicable for any FOSS community or project. I congratulate Shakthi for his inspirational writing. Such efforts are required to inspire upcoming generation.

Lately I was travelling to [Chennai](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chennai)
10+
for some personal work. I was very clear on meeting [Mr. Shakthi
11+
Kannan](http://shakthimaan.com/). While travelling to Chennai I dropped a mail
12+
inquiring about his availability. He replied with an invitation to attend the
13+
Meetup of [Indian Linux Users Group,
14+
Chennai](https://www.meetup.com/ILUG-C/events/234086665/) scheduled at IIT
15+
Madras. I happily accepted the invitation and decided to attend the Meetup.
16+
17+
The Meetup was happening in the AeroSpace Engineering department, IIT Madras.
18+
The campus is so huge that it took 15 minute bus journey to get to the
19+
department. Because I was late, I missed the initial talk on Emacs Org mode by
20+
Shakthi. I was lucky enough to attend lightning talk section. When I entered
21+
one young boy was demonstrating
22+
[BeFF](http://tools.kali.org/exploitation-tools/beef-xss). I was not aware
23+
about this tool before his talk. After his words I realized BeFF is a
24+
penetration testing tool and now I am confident for switching to its
25+
documentation and start going through it. His talk ended with little discussion
26+
on doubts. Nearly one hour was still remaining Shakthi came forward and invited
27+
interested people to present a lightning talk. That sure rang a bell! I was not
28+
sure about attending Meetup and presenting something instantly was looking
29+
tough. Mohan moved forward and demonstrated How memory mapping works in
30+
GNU/Linux system. During his talk I quickly skimmed on a list of topics I was
31+
aware about and I decided to speak on [JSON Web
32+
Token](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON_Web_Token). I introduced myself and
33+
demonstrated ways to generate a secure token. Discussed about architecture a
34+
bit and gave few guidelines, points to remember. I ended my talk with comparing
35+
[Oauth 2.0](https://oauth.net/2/) with JWT. Few interested people asked
36+
questions and I was lucky enough to solve their confusions.
37+
38+
I realized it is good to have small and interested audience than having large
39+
and distracted audience. This group has nice experienced people in the
40+
GNU/Linux domain. If Chennai is your town, I will promote you to join this
41+
group and get involved.
