Well, the discussion was getting a Google Apps account for SPI in general, rather than for a specific project. So I think for things which SPI is doing as an umbrella organization, the "free software" test still applies. Of course, I'm not on the Board. ;-) There is a more substantial technical obstacle to Google Apps NPO subscription: it is limited to a single domain and a single administrator. So all projects who use an SPI-based subscription to Google Apps would be using @spi-inc.org, and SPI IT staff would need to control accounts. This is not prohibitive, just be aware of it. Anyway, from the sound of it, OBF doesn't need anything which OSL or our existing IT infrastructure can't provide ... using entirely free software. --Josh Berkus _______________________________________________ Spi-general mailing list Spi-general@lists.spi-inc.org http://lists.spi-inc.org/listinfo/spi-general
