That is a great Idea. But try to mention as Proprietary software in common

 Hope Asking help to Free software foundation and Ubuntu-India teams will

A brief explanation about the laptop distribution ceremony will be good so

I have added ubuntu-in mailings list and FSFTN mailings list to get some
more audience. If I get a clear overview and a good explanation about the
release, then I can post it in my blog and some of my friends' blog too.
