“For example, a project such as FreeITAthens could be
launched virtually anywhere. FreeITAthens refurbishes older
hardware and installs open source software on the machines. Twenty
hours of volunteer time with the project is just one way to earn a
“new” computer and learn not only the skills necessary to keep it
running well, but help others in the community gain access to
computers, the internet — and open source software. The strategic
plan and bylaws are posted online and can certainly be reverse
engineered and tailored to fit another area’s
circumstances.”
