I’m very happy with the plans of the Ubuntu NGO team this cycle. In short we want to:
- have more regular meetings – once a month
- get an overview of NGO-related blueprints in maverick (http://hexmode.openweblog.com/538142.html)
- come up with specific questions for interviews
- work on stats/feedback from the interviews – find out what works very well for NGO – tools they’ve built on their own
- put together spec and blog, post to mailing list announcing Manifest and create branch to make it easier for others to contribute
- document set-up and install for common applications for NGOs
- create Facebook group
- investigate if there’s “NGO Planet websites” somewhere
- find list of groups of websites and list of organisations
- See if NGOs would consider document their work – best practices
If you’re interested in stuff that non-profits, NGOs and charities do, in Ubuntu and making the world a better place. Join the team and the mailing list and contribute!
