Submitted by admin on Tue, 07/17/2007 - 12:40
As you might know, we're updating the NOSI primer, and we've gotten lots of interesting case studies of implementation of free and open source software in nonprofit organizations.We're looking for one different kind of case study that we would like to write, something that wasn't present when we wrote the original primer: the relationships that have been built between nonprofit technology providers and open source development communities. If you are a nonprofit-focused technology provider (nonprofit,for-little-profit, or a big for-profit) and have *significant* relationships with a specific open source developer community (generally, this is because you have chosen to deeply invest in implementing their tool) I'd love to interview you.By significant relationship - I mean more than submitting a few bugs now and again. Your developers are contributing code, or staff are contributing documentation, you've helped organize events, you've sponsored things. The lead developers are in your 'rolodex' because you talk to them fairly often. That sort of thing.Please email me as soon as possible! Also, email if you think you've got a great FOSS implementation story to tell!
