Free software dramatically changed the way software is produced, distributed, supported, and used. The free software option not only imposes new challenges to software provides but also has a visible social impact enabling a richer digital inclusion. The 6th International Workshop on Free Software (WFS2005), which will be co-located with the Free Software International Forum 2005, intends to present and discuss the developments and research activities related to free software carried out in academia and industry. Authors are invited to submit papers describing finished or under development work related to relevant aspects of free software. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Free software-based research; - Comparing and evaluating free software solutions against proprietary solutions; - Adaptation and expansion of free software; - Academic experimentations using free software; - Use of free software in education; - Emerging technologies supported by free software; - Operating system distributions; - Networks and distributed systems; - Free software on databases, imaging processing, computer graphics; - Free software for artificial intelligence; - Digital inclusion; - E-government and free software; - E-Commerce and free software; - Public digital services; - Regional integration, and globalization. Accepted papers will be included in the WFS 2005 proceedings. At least one author of each accepted paper should register to the event and be present at WFS 2005 to present the work. PAPER SUBMISSION ---------------- Papers should be written in English and formatted following the Brazilian Computer Society style. Paper templates are available at https://submissoes.sbc.org.br/templates. Papers are limited to 8 pages.

My recommendation is to hop on to SourceForge, pick a project, and help answer user questions and fixing bugs. Advantages: - you'll be helping the project along - you'll gain familiarity with the software - you'll gain familiarity with the project - you'll learn a lot in a short time. Lots of example code to wade through. In addition to the projects on SourceForge, have a look at Mozilla, Fedora Core, OpenOffice.org, and MySQL. Many use C and/or C++ and/or Java. And, of course, there's always the linux kernel itself at http://www.kernel.org/ Just my $0.02. Regards, - Robert http://www.cwelug.org/downloads Help others get OpenSource software.

Advantages: Why not make a buck in the process ? If PHP is your poison (it's not right now, but I assure you it's an interesting and widely used language), check out the Horde project and its bounty at http://www.horde.org/bounties/. Or participate in the Ubuntu project. Mark Shuttleworth is willing to pay big bucks for different projects to be worked upon. Grab your pieces at http://www.ubuntulinux.org/community/bounties/document_view These are just the two that I know about. I am pretty damn sure other projects have similar system.

Take a look at this for another example: http://www.horde.org/bounties/ Somebody needs to run a respectable, accountable, sustainable, transparent organization that coordinates and administers open source development bounties. There've been a couple of dozen times when I and/or a client of mine would've been happy to contribute $20-$40 toward the addition or refinement of a particular feature in an OS package, but development bounty systems like those at Horde.org and ubuntulinux.org aren't sufficiently common in occurrence, broad in scope, nor capable in practice. If hobbyist developers were able to visit a single web site, or small selection of web sites, representing a broad swath of open-source development projects and associated bounties, I think bounty fulfillment would pick up considerably. -- Graham Freeman Cernio +1 415 462 2991 (USA) +44 (0) 20 7101 9343 (UK) graham.freeman at cernio.com GPG/PGP key: 0x14825E0B From dodemba at yahoo.com Wed Feb 16 13:18:16 2005 From: dodemba at yahoo.com (Derick Odemba) Date: Wed, 16 Feb 2005 05:18:16 -0800 (PST) Subject: [OS:N:] Just joined In-Reply-To: <1108500111.3799.36.camel@localhost.localdomain> Message-ID: <20050216131816.65776.qmail@web52608.mail.yahoo.com> Hi, My name is Derick and I'm just venturing into java and oo programming.

There used to a few of these service a while back. CoSource and sourceXchange where two that I remember (don't go look for them, their domain is being squatted). If you feel nostalgic, you can read an article by Doc Searl Google turned out : http://www.searls.com/linuxforsuits/industry.html Unfortunately, these service never reached a critical mass and eventually folded. This is why I made the remark that I find it sad that some bounty can go unclaimed for months. If developpers are uninterested in these, eventual sponsors will not care. Basically, the ball need to get rolling : if posted bounties are claimed and jobs get done, potential sponsors will see the system work and manifest themselves; more bounties will be posted, more job would get done and so on.

While we wait for your teaser, here is the executive summary : 1. A potential sponsors get a itch; maybe he really want a specific bug to get resolved, maybe he need a specific feature in an existing, or he need to have something of general interest writtent from scratch to solve a problem of his. 2. This potential sponsor do not have the ressource to solve his problem by himself; maybe he does not have the expertise, maybe he does'nt have time to take care of it himself. However, he value a solution to his problem enough that he would be willing to pay to have it resolve. 3. The sponsor post a bounty (on a web site, a mailing list, etc) : a description of his problem and how much he is willing to pay to have resolved, along with whatever constraint must be met for the bounty to be paid (ie: deadline). This is usually done informally on the basis of honor, so some level of trust in the sponsor is assumed. 4. An interested dev publically announce his intent to solve the problem and claim the bounty. Again, some level of trust that he *will* solve the problem is assumed, as the intent announcement inhibit other potential claimer. 5. Once the claimer is done, he publically announce it. 6. The sponsor evaluate the result, see if it meet his needs and constraints, and eventually pay the bounty (by Paypal, for exemple). Some people will say there is too much trust involved here and that the process should be formalized, but I disagree. Some escrow mechanisms have been tried in the past, and the overhead involved seem to be too much for the gain. Bounties are good for small thing (fixing a bug, writing a driver, updating or translating a manual); larger project are better suited for formal contract, where it is assumed the "sponsor" (the client, really) do some project management and follow-up. Also, bounties can be mutualized both way. Many sponsors might be willing to pay a small amount that, once put together, represent a larger, more interesting amount for potential claimers. This require some level of "bounty management", and this is what the Horde project does for example. Another way to mutualize bounties is to have many devs working together toward a larger bounty that require too much work for a single dev, and splitting the amount. Sorry if this is too long, I have gone overboard with my "executive summary" !

The reason for our existence is to start a conversation in the blogosphere about Open Source and Open Content in Education. Current members of the blog are certain members of a finnish association called VOPE (Free and Open Source in Education Association). We accept guest bloggers as well. We will begin with very interesting content related to the future of Open Source in education. We have done several digital audio interviews all around the globe of people who work in the field of education and Open Source. The interviews are analyzed and reported on our website. We aim to bring together different ideas of the future of Open Source from people who work on various fields. In the upcoming weeks we are reporting our findings related to the Comenius 2.1 Contact Seminar held in Europe, which features an Open Source in Education related workshop where the previously mentioned interviews will be analyzed further. Some of the interviews we have done include Stephen Downes (downes.ca), Alan Levine (cogdogblog), Knut Yrvin (skolelinux.no), George Siemens (elearnspace), Teemu Leinonen (fle3) and Antti Kauppi (University of Helsinki). These will be posted shortly.
