You, being completely committed to open software and not being quick enough to have hidden, want to respond with a complete solution. What do you do?

What functions might they need? What software should you install to meet those needs? Then how do you setup those software systems and how do you administer them? Don't worry about money. There is none. You will be using mostly hand-me-down hardware and only new store-bought-stuff if absolutly necessary and if the price is low.

An introduction to the various components with a chance for feedback, to get an idea of what our membership would like to hear more about at future meetings.

Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) is a requirement, where possible.

We started this exercise at the October and November meetings with discussions to identify the required functions and the software candidates to fulfill those requirements. At the December meeting we will give a breif introduction to each of them and may try to actually install and configure as much as we can. There will probably be far too many things in our 'Back Office' solution to install them during the meeting.

Here is the situation. Someone that you know, your brother-in-law, your cousin, your minister, your ...., well someone, wants to setup a back office computing operation for a small business, or an organization, or something. They know that you are a computer expert. They ask you what to do.

It has been mentioned that we could try to actually install and configure parts of this. There seems to be far too many things in our solution to install anything during the meeting. If anyone wants guidance with selection, installation, setup and administration of these parts bring it up and I'm sure someone will be more than glad to help.

Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) is a requirement, where possible.

Please join us in October and November to do the specifications and in December for the Grand Finally.

Although, if others think we should try and install some stuff in December, then maybe we can do that.
