NOSI Salon

Join me at the Aspiration offices in the San Francisco Nonprofit Technology Center for the first of what we hope will be many NOSI Salons. The Nonprofit Open Source Initiative (NOSI) is gearing up for a new phase of activity, and we want to hear what you are thinking about open source software and it's role in the nonprofit sector. In what ways is the connection working? How is it not? What kinds of new ideas and resources are needed? We're also looking to start conversations on how to get nonprofits involved in the open source community. How do we foster open source development in the nonprofit sector? How do we educate nonprofit technology staff and consultants on the ethos of open source software, not just it's practical applications?Talk with Michelle Murrain of NOSI and Allen Gunn of Aspiration about your ideas and passions for open source. Snacks and beverages provided. We'll be meeting at the Aspiration offices - 1370 Mission St. 4th Floor, in San Francisco, at 5:30-7:00 pm on December 11th. Please come by, and lend us your ideas, and tell us what you think NOSI should be tackling in the next year. And if you can't come to the Salon, drop me a note, or login here and leave comments. We'll be posting a report in a day or so after the event.
