Whitman Direct Action strives to also be the first ever open-source organization! Following the tenets of the open-source software movement, we’re aiming to put all of our information online, license it under Creative Commons, and encourage others to easily re-create the structure of our organization and the projects we do.

The currently “open-sourced” components of our organization:

• A colophon detailing the technical aspects of our website
• Minutes and agendas from the Sadhana Clean Water Project
• Various resources including a logo kit and past presentations

More information, resources, and tutorials will be coming soon. In the meantime, please contact us with any questions you may have, along with any feedback you would like to give in order to make us mo’ betta!

Thanks!

Open source is a set of principles and practices that promote access to the design and production of goods and knowledge. The term is most commonly applied to the source code of software that is available to the general public with relaxed or non-existent intellectual property restrictions. This allows users to create software content through incremental individual effort or through collaboration - Wikipedia
