Thanks for the comments on the education strategy, everyone! I'm digesting and incorporating patches, pondering a better way to structure & express it, wishing our MediaWiki had an embedded spreadsheet instance, and pondering next steps in general (right now, next steps == getting TOS swag produced for SIGCSE before next Friday's Fiscal Year 2010 expense-filing cutoff).
Along the same lines, many of us have talked about having a POSSE hosting bid process for a long time, but nobody's ever written it. So I took a stab. The important part is the http://teachingopensource.org/index.php/POSSE_bid_process#Proposal_Process, which I think is... halfway there, but not quite solid. http://teachingopensource.org/index.php/POSSE_bid_process has the whole shebang. Again, not official/live, this is a preview/draft/strawman to criticize. After writing all this I still feel somewhat vague about what a location bid includes, so what I'm going to do next is write up an *actual* location bid for a local POSSE here in Raleigh as an example to see how it works. --Mel _______________________________________________ tos mailing list tos@teachingopensource.org http://teachingopensource.org/mailman/listinfo/tos
