[hackerspaces] [P2P-F] Truth-out : #OccupyWallStreet Is More Than a Hashtag

[Devin Balkind]

The report is that we're on liberated territory and need to start presenting
solutions so we can turn the enthusiasm that's being generated into
productively transforming into a free/libre/open/p2p economy.

We've started the Free/Libre/Open-source (FLO) Solutions group at Occupy
Wall St because we believe that everyone should have access to the
information they need to solve their own problems.  The mission of our group
is to spread awareness about FLO solutions (ex. Linux), and provide
equipment, training, documentation and support to people developing and
deploying FLO solutions. We spend our time around the Liberty Square Library
on the corner of Broadway and Liberty St.

Our numbers are expanding.  We can mobilize people to help the P2P-F.  What
would you like to see us do?  Can anyone here manage volunteers, give them
tasks, etc?  I can pitch projects to the group.

Please cc me directly with responses.

Thanks.

Occupy Everywhere! ;)
