In case you missed it, Jisc Inform has an article by OSS Watch on open source for colleges, in which we highlight the Open Source Options resource.

I’ll also be doing a short talk at ALT-C next month on Open Source Options in education – see you there!

Welcome to the OSS Watch team blog, where you can read the personal views of individual OSS Watch team members.

This makes the content here quite different from the materials published on the OSS Watch site. Those materials go through a rigorous quality assurance process to ensure they are balanced, as is required from a service intended to facilitate informed decision. Here there are no restrictions on what can be posted, individual opinion and even free thought (shock!) is encouraged, but often challenged.

We hope you enjoy learning about the individual interests and positions of our team members. Furthermore, we hope you will use the comment facility to tell us when you think we have it wrong.
