Dear Editor,

The new look & feel and content structure of Informatics is really impressive and useful not only for NICians, but also for those who watch, work in and are benefited by the Indian IT Scenario. Needless to say, it carries hot news from the NIC Climate, but I would like to suggest that it should carry more information about completed/on-going prestigious projects from all state units. Another suggestion from my side is , please make sure that it reaches those who are interested in knowing about IT in Government of India through popular search engines. At present they hardly list the website of this newsletter. There can be a link to home.nic.in from the Home Page of Informatics itself.

Dear Editor,

Informatics gives us a useful insight into the projects & activities happening in other centers of NIC. There are so many common projects which are being implemented by NICians in different ways of programming. There is a need to create a download site (software bank) for NICians use only to download various software developed by other units of NIC. All software which are developed by state/district unit and running successfully for last 3-4 years may be put on this site with proper documentation. So that NICian in need may download the desired software from this site for local use. This will save our precious time to develop a s/w, which would have already been developed somewhere else by another NIC unit.
