Open Source Talk

(Took some more pics on my ride yesterday. Played with macro a bit, too.)

Last night, I gave a talk at the Central PA Linux Users Group (CPLUG) that I called "Bringing Open Source to Africa". While I could have made it more general and talked about the various Open Source projects that have grown out of or are centered around Africa -- and perhaps this is a topic for another time -- I focused on the projects that IntraHealth is doing and how we've created or used Open Source.

The talk was followed by some good discussion and I got to talk about KnowledgeTree some as one of my friends there had heard of it and thought it would be useful, but was a little scared of setting it up.

The biggest drawback was that, due to my poor planning, I didn't get a set of slides done till just before the talk. I was lucky here because other people at IntraHealth have done so many talks so I was able to use their material to create my own presentation.
