About SOS

Our goal is to to document and hopefully leverage activist experience in support of free software and open source issues around the world and especially in developing countries. Although open source and free software are our starting points we shall also try to cover issues of Internet access, intellectual property and software patents as well as open standards.

SOS started as an idea within the Public Software Work Group mailing list. If you would like to help out the following links provide more information:
