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?The first NOSI Salon will be in San Francisco on December 11, 2006. We have had Salons in Austin, TX, Washington, DC and Lowell, MA. We hope to have many Salons in the future.
