We’d love to get more women involved in nonprofit open source – women from the nptech world who might not be thinking a lot about open source, and women from the open source community who might not be thinking a lot about nonprofit organizations. Let’s get together! at 2:50 pm Thanks for shout out.

So maybe, we can get some Linuxchix to get involved in the nptech community, and we can get some nptech women who might be a little shy getting their toes wet with technology installing linux and writing code, with Linuxchix support, and have some nice synergy. at 2:04 pm I’ll second Tory’s thanks.

I think it would be very great to have a few nptech-focused “planets&# out there. And, I also don’t want to do too much cross-posting of content. It’s a great idea, I think.

I could think of several interesting implementations in the nptech world that would be fun (like it would make a great e-learning platform for, say, circuit riders, or folks like that.) I wish I had an excuse to install and test it – but it really requires a purpose for bringing community together.

One of the big changes that has happened in the nptech space, besides the ways in which Web 2.0 has clearly changed the nptech providers community, is the increasing use of Salesforce as a nonprofit CRM tool. So doesn’t the metaphor used for that software matter, then, in a nonprofit setting?
