Are you saying there are no OSS folks who have lost their houses, their cars and their Internet connections and therefore have difficulty continuing contributing to OSS projects? I hope that is the truth, but I sincerely doubt that it is. Not substantially different in spirit than OSS is our Community Networking Grant program which supports ~ 300 not-for-profits. When we began in 1995, we offered free Internet connections to each school, library and hospital in our service area of 43 counties in north Texas. The recent downslide in the economy has made that immeasurably more difficult to continue, but we are continuing with it for another year. kind regards/ldv/vaden at texoma.net
