This might be slightly off-topic, but I thought some of the members might be
interested in reviewing some of these open course options. Not necessarily
opensource-related, but good models for education and open-ness,
nonetheless.

Hi All,
I accidentally went to teachingopensource.com today - which I do all the
time - and noticed that it is no longer redirecting to the .org site. I'm
not sure where the DNS is, or how to update (or if I am correct in thinking
that it used to redirect...).
Sorry if this is already on the tod
I like the captcha idea.
I think logs from the wiki updates channel would be handy, that way someone
could periodically check the logs for strange activity and clean it up.

First of all, I'm far from a git expert, so I'm going to keep this pretty
wide-open and apologize in advance if I slip any inaccuracies in here.
With that caveat, it's mostly a distinction in permissions and branch
utilization. The most apparent di

GitHub now has educational accounts (free for students, free for
teachers/student groups, discount for educational administrators). I think
this is something to keep in mind for events targeting distributed activity

I second this.
My only concern is that we have a means to generate virtual machines (where
root access can be granted) for the purposes of sandboxing, testing, and
instruction. My understanding was that OSL could also provide these.

While I hate to admit it, this seems like a situation where it would be best
to beat them at their own game.
I think the best way to address the lacking license fees and proposal
absence is to generate some proposals with installation, hosting, training,
maintenance, and administrative fees. A sm
Thanks everyone for the additional details. I added myself to the
infrastructure team on the wiki page, and I'd like to assist where possible.
A little more about me: I have junior/mid level admin experience, and a
passion for organization, documentation, and process improvement. I do not

I'm a little lost in the minutes from this meeting. Is the decision that we
use a VM that will be entirely administered by TOS? And hence avoid using
any of OSL's centralized services?
If so, I'm not sure what we gain by managing all the services independently.

+1 on feeling like I could help, but not knowing exactly how I can offer
useful efforts.
Again, I'm relatively new to the mailing list, so apologies if this has
already been discussed, but what about a TOS forum or issue tracker? I am
thinking of someplace where profs or less-technical instructor
Hi All,
I'm hijacking the middle of this thread, because I just joined the mailing
list, and have some thoughts I'd like to add (I first commented on
Sebastian's blog post, then noticed the activity here).
As a new voice, I'll first voice my apologies if I re-spawn old topics or
cover details alr
