| SUBJECT | Subject: [NYLXS - HANGOUT] Professors Open Source Summer Experience @RIT
|
Just a quick note about the Professors Open Source Summer Experience, AKA a
POSSE, that's scheduled for RIT this June since it's probably time for
anyone wanting to attend to be thinking about it.
If you're not familiar, POSSE is a program of TeachingOpenSource.org and
it's intention is to get the FOSS development model integrated into formal
Computer Science curricula.
"the POSSE program is a week long boot camp that will immerse professors
in open source projects. Participants spend a week of intensive
participation in selected open source projects, led by professors with
experience in teaching open source development, in partnership with
community members who have deep experience and insight. By the end of the
session, participants should have a much better understanding of the
workings of open source projects, and a strong network of contacts to lean
on as they begin to bring students into the open source world. "
