Dear Friends! We would like to announce that we have just finished a new resource. A resource that we hope all of you might like, it is called the 'Source Camp Replication Materials'. It is a website where you can find information, templates, tips and secrets about organising Source Events. To date we have organised five events; Summer Source in Croatia (2003), Africa Source 1 in Namibia(2004), Asia Source in India (2005), FOSS road in Tajikistan (2005) and Africa Source 2 in Uganda (2006). We are in the process of scoping out an Asia Source 2 event as well as an Arab Source, and you will be the first to learn about them when we are sure if they will come together.
So what are the Source Camp Replication Materials for? We are very proud of the Source Events and we have been learning for the last three years how to make them better. We have been asked many times either to organise Source Events in different places or help in organising them. Unfortunately we have never had enough capacity to do that. However we thought that in the spirit of Free and Open Source Software and the general philosophy of the Source Camps we would like to show how they were organised and share our experiences in such a way that anyone who would like to organise their own Source Camp or other event inspired by Source Camps could do so using a set of materials. Before I will give you the URL of where you can find it, we have a small request, there is a section called "ex-campers", which is a space where we would like people who participated in any of our camps to share with us and everybody else what were their experiences, what have they learned, what inspired them, who they met etc. Please help us in showing how amazing each of the communities that met during those camps were. At the same time we are waiting for your feedback - tell us what you like about it and what you would like to improve in its next version (2.0) In return we would like to ask everyone who is going to use this resource in one or another way to credit Tactical Tech and even better to let us know, so we'll know if it is worth doing this in the first place! So here it is at http://replication.tacticaltech.org please do remember to let us know what you think. thanx m -- .''`. : :' : `. `'` `- Orgulhoso ser MetaRecicleiro http://manaus.metareciclagem.org/ _______________________________________________ Lista de discussão da MetaReciclagem Envie mensagens para [email protected] http://lista.metareciclagem.org
