Open Source Software for Non-Profits

We're trying to do a better job tracking discussions about the costs and benefits of open source software. This week we stumbled on Choosing and Using Open Source Software: A primer for nonprofits, by Michelle Murrain, which seems overall to take a fairly positive view of open source software for non-profits in the near-term. Also cited in the Primer is Realizing the Promise of Open Source in the Non-Profit Sector by Jonathan Peizer, CTO of the Open Society Institute, published in September 2003.
