Hello guys, The Computer Professional's Union is compiling Free software tools that will be of use to different People's organizations.
Currently, there are may similar initiatives. However, we are differentiating our effort through a very simple selection that in our experience in working with them are the most essential. What do we intend to do? Aside from compiling them in a cd (ala opencd or ngo in a box) we will have installing manuals and user manuals for every software in the compilation. Manuals should be customized to _computer_literate_ users_. The language should be in _Filipino_ and an english translation is a secondary option. But we would like the software to have manuals on both languages. If you are more familiar with the english language you can write the manual in english. We will then find volunteers to translate your work. All our work will be released on appropriate free license (creative commons perhaps) for proper attribution. We also need creative ideas on how to layout this compilation on the cd. CD covers and images as fillers perhaps, and other artworks are welcome. if you can refer us to generous funders please do inform us through rick.bahague at cp-union.org. To become a volunteer, please send an email to rick.bahague at cp-union.org with your name and contact information and topic you want to do. This cd version will focus on security and privacy tools.
