Dear Suresh,
First thank you for contacting us and showing so much interest in
promoting GNOME. I have copied the gugmasters-list@ as it is
usually a more appropriate place for those kind of requests.
For the goodies part you have unfortunately missed the launch
party offer by about 2 months (we sent goodies to any party
organizer who registered before February 15th). I am not sure when
we will have a similar offer again. My experience in Bangalore
during the GNOME.Asia Summit was that production costs in India
were very low as. I assume it stands true for Sri Lanka as well.
Considering you seem to be trying to organize quite a big event I
would aim to secure a few local sponsors (such as local IT
companies, NPO, companies targeting your people interested by
technology). I think if you're able to make a clear budget to
cover water cost and a few stickers/balloons/banner you will
easily find people or companies to support you. We will happily
review your work if you need.
Regarding setting up a gnome user group I would first recommend
you this presentation that was given during the 2011 GNOME.Asia
Summit:
https://live.gnome.org/GnomeAsia/2011Summit/Slides?action="">
then visit https://live.gnome.org/UserGroups which goes into more
details.
And then you can come back to us posting on gugmasters-list@ with
further questions if you have any.
I hope I managed to address your question and look forward to be
able to help further if needed.
Thanks.
Fred
